Amazing Eau Claire Clean-Up

The Eau Claire Parks, Recreation, & Forestry Department is organizing the “Amazing Eau Claire Clean-Up” for Saturday, April 25, 2009. This event sends volunteers to locations throughout the city including community parks, neighborhood playgrounds, picnic areas, and recreational trails, where they clean the areas and prepare flowerbeds. Following the clean up, volunteers are invited to Owen Park for food and prizes. The Amazing Eau Claire Clean-up is a great opportunity for people to work together and make a difference in our community.

~Keep Eau Claire Beautiful~

The City of Eau Claire Parks and Recreation Department is looking for volunteers to help maintain public flower gardens and assist in keeping our parks clean. The focus is citywide beautification and promoting community pride through volunteerism.

Adopt a flower garden

Adopt a flower garden

Groups can adopt a public flower garden. The City will provide the materials. The group will plant and maintain the bed for one year. The City will install a sign at the site recognizing the group. These projects require a few hours of time each month during the spring and summer to plant flowers, pull weeds and mulch beds. This can be a great opportunity to meet other gardening enthusiasts, learn more about plant care, gain experience in garden design and plant selection, and beautify our community.

Adopt A Park, Playground or Trail

Groups and individuals can adopt a public area to help maintain. This could be ongoing throughout the year or a one-time event.

There are great opportunities for:

  • Scout groups
  • Civil groups
  • Church groups
  • School groups
  • Adopt A Park, Playground or Trail

Donations for benches, trees or other park accessories to be placed on public areas throughout the City, can be made by contacting the Parks Maintenance Office at 839-5039.

For more information on how you can be a part of "Keeping Eau Claire Beautiful", call the Volunteer Coordinator at 839-5039.
