Rock Springs

The Rock Springs Clean Up day will have their event on Saturday, and participants can take part whenever they choose to do so, individually, or as a group. There is no actual gathering, but those who want to sign up can do so at the Rock Springs Chamber of Commerce. Participants will then be given a group and a part of town to clean for their group. The chamber will provide garbage bags, gloves, and water to those who sign up.

Those who sign up need to notify the chamber if they plan to attend the Volunteer Appreciation Lunch at 1 p.m., which will take place at the Young at Heart Community Center.

To dispose of bigger items, the chamber asks participants to contact the City of Rock Springs so they can get their truck to pick it up. Those who want to start now and clean can do so until Saturday, May 18th.

The Green River Clean Up day will be from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., and those attending will meet at the Green River Chamber of Commerce/Visitor Center at 8 a.m., located at 1155 W Flaming Gorge Way. There will be free breakfast donated by McDonald’s and Smith’s Food and Drug Stores.
