The West Brighton litter clean up is an event we organize in the spring and fall. Keeping the beautification of our neighborhood is important. We cover Forest Ave from Hart Blvd to Bement Ave as well as Castleton Ave and the streets in-between. In addition to the cleanup, we also plant daffodil bulbs in the tree beds along Forest and Castleton Avenues.
SUPPLIES ARE PROVIDED: gloves, grabbers, brooms, rakes, and trash bags via The Department of Sanitation. In addition to cleaning up the litter, we also remove all the illegal signs off fences and the illegal stickers off poles (please bring a scrapper).
Community service certificates are available to all students.
