This Saturday, May 7th, we’ll join as a neighborhood with our friends and neighbors starting at 10am for a spring clean and celebration. We’ll meet at the Cleveland Community Garden at Vincent and Lowry to receive gloves, pickers and bags and meet neighbors from your street team (Penn through Xerxes Teams). Together we’ll walk the blocks from Lowry to Dowling picking up litter and helping make the neighborhood sparkle. We’ll finish with a celebration lunch complete with music and resource tables. It’s going to be a great event and we hope you and your neighbors can make it out to join us. Bring a water bottle and a willing spirit and we’ll see you Saturday!

What makes your neighborhood “livable”? What do you love about your neighborhood? What would you like to see changed? Join us on May 27th from 6-8pm as neighbors come together and discuss important issues about the livability of the Cleveland Neighborhood. We’re excited to have elected officials: Council President Barb Johnson and Senator Bobby Joe Champion joining us for this gathering. We’ll have table conversations about those topics you feel are most important for your community, from transit to gardening, litter to safety. We’ll also make time for a Q and A and some action planning to ensure all of our input moves from a conversation to tangible actions that resident can take to continue to make the community a great place to live.
Tomorrow is the big day, don’t miss a chance to join your neighbors and head out for a morning of cleaning up the neighborhood together. If joining your neighbors to do something good isn’t enough maybe a delicious homemade lunch after cleaning will win you over? And if lunch doesn’t do it, you ought to come just to get one of these awesome t-shirts, screenprinted by Juxtaposition Arts, making you an official part of the Cleveland Green Team.
