Join us in spring cleaning our city!
Spend the day at a local Mendota Heights park or other public space helping to remove garbage and keep our City clean.

Collected materials can be left in or near garbage receptacles at each City park. Volunteers should wear appropriate attire, including protective gloves, closed-toe shoes, and dress for the weather. Safety vests are also available for loan if desired.
