Seattle’s 100th Clean and Green is coming soon!

Please join me Saturday, July 11th at Othello Playground, 4351 S Othello St., from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., to celebrate Seattle’s 100th Clean and Green with a day of volunteerism. Since 2002, we have visited dozens of neighborhoods and partnered with hundreds of volunteer and environmental agencies to make Seattle a greener and more vibrant place to live, work and play. To date, Clean and Greens have collected a total of more than 542,550 pounds of litter and debris, repaired more than 4,275 streetlights and painted out nearly 6,305 graffiti sites. Clean and Green Seattle has invigorated communities and established lasting alliances between the city and organizations. I look forward to celebrating these partnerships, as well as the 15,000 Seattle volunteers who have made this work!

This weekend is especially exciting because we will be cleaning up the neighborhood around the Othello Station in anticipation of Link light rail that will open the following Saturday, July 18th. Please join us as we continue to work side-by-side with our neighbors and city departments to clean up our community.
