SUMMARY:Rubbish Roundup
DESCRIPTION:The Town of Amherst is excited to host the annual Amherst Rubbish Roundup on Sunday\, April 26th from 12:00 to 2:00 pm. This community clean up event aims to bring residents together for a fun and impactful day of cleaning and beautifying our beloved town. \n\n \n\nAll town residents and groups are invited to participate\, including community organizations\, businesses\, families\, neighborhood associations\, student clubs\, and religious communities. Whether signing up as an individual or with a group\, this is a wonderful opportunity to meet neighbors and make a positive impact on our community. Together\, volunteers can make Amherst cleaner\, greener\, and even more beautiful than it already is. \n\n \n\nParticipants are asked to sign up by Sunday\, April 19 at amherstma.gov/RubbishRoundup2026  \n\n \n\nVolunteers will report to cleanup sites throughout Amherst including Mill River Recreation Area in North Amherst\, Town Hall/North Common in Central Amherst\, Groff Park in South Amherst\, and any other areas suggested through the sign-up form.  \n\n \n\nEach site will be staffed by a team of captains with supplies\, safety instructions\, and assignments. Supplies will be provided\, but participants are encouraged to bring their own work gloves and eye protection (safety glasses or sunglasses). Additionally\, please remember to bring water\, wear closed toe shoes\, and apply sun protection for comfort and safety. \n\n \n\nLast year\, nearly 200 volunteers came together to collect 184 bags of trash and recycling as well as some fascinating "treasures" along the way\, including a hydraulic suspension mechanism\, a pair of green camouflage roller skates\, a piece of sectional sofa\, an old phone\, hubcaps\, a suitcase\, a laptop computer\, and even a faded love poem!
