The City of McKinney is asking residents, businesses, and schools to take 20 minutes from their busy schedules at 2 p.m. on Friday, April 22, to clean up the grounds around their home, work or school. If 2 p.m. or April 22 doesn’t work with your schedule, find another time or day when you can spare 20 minutes to spruce up.
The 20-Minute McKinney Makeover is an effort to reduce storm water pollution and celebrate Earth Day.
Please follow these simple steps to participate:
1. E-mail stormwater@mckinneytexas.org with your interest and begin registration.
2. Pick your clean-up area boundaries.
3. Find your volunteers.
4. Organize your clean-up tools – garbage bags, recycling bags, gloves and appropriate footwear.
5. Make it fun! Organize teams and have friendly competitions…who finds the most unique piece of litter, collects the most recyclables, collects the heaviest litter, etc
