SUMMARY:Cascades Trash Bash
DESCRIPTION:Registration is closed- we are full Thank you! \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nCelebrate fall and enjoy the beautiful Virginia foliage with your family\, neighbors\, scout troop\, or school group and make a difference in your community by cleaning up litter around the Cascades area and Sugarland Run flood plain. \n\n\n\nWhen: Sunday October 16th\, 2022 starting at 12:30 pm. \n\n\n\nWhere: We’ll be meeting at the Quarterpath Trace Community Center\, at 20430 Quarterpath Trace Circle\, Sterling\, VA 20165\, which is at the intersection of Algonkian Pkwy and Quarterpath Trace Circle. Restrooms will be available at the Quarterpath Trace Community Center. \n\n\n\nThis year we are requiring registration for everyone who’d like to participate. We are trying to assign areas beforehand to be more prepared and help things move smoother. \n\n\n\nWe will provide safety vests\, bags\, grabbers (we will ask small groups to share 1 grabber)\, fruit\, and water/lemonade served in an environmentally friendly manner\, so please remember to bring your own reusable water bottle! In line with our mission\, this will be a “plastic bottle-free zone” so be prepared; we never ever provide single use bottled water bottles at any of our events (after picking up your first few dozen\, you’ll understand why). \n\n\n\nWe are especially looking for able-bodied volunteers 16 years or older\, to help in the floodplain area where the bulk of the trash and litter will be. The floodplain area is muddy and close to streams\, so waterproof boots\, waders\, or sturdy shoes are a must. We do go into the water that is waist high. We also need people who will help haul full bags of trash/recycling and tires from the flood plan to the pickup truck we will have nearby. \n\n\n\nFor volunteers cleaning along roadways\, please wear proper footwear for walking. We have reusable gloves to share but we highly recommend bringing yours (they can be your gardening gloves). \n\n\n\nScout troops– We have KLB badges for the Scouts! If you are a Girl Scout or Boy Scout troop\, please indicate in the sign up your troop number\, age of troop\, and the number of kids and adults participating. \n\n\n\nREUSE YOUR T-SHIRTS FROM PRIOR YEARSIn an effort to reduce our ecological footprint\, we are not printing new t-shirts for this event. But we will have t-shirts from past years that you can take that are brand new\, never used. We’ve seen so many t-shirts at donation centers that end in landfills so we are trying to figure out better giveaways. However\, we do encourage you to bring your KLB t-shirt from previous events you have attended. We will also have safety vests for visibility. \n\n\n\nFOOD DRIVEWe will be collecting food for Dulles South Food Pantry\, and they are particularly in need of these items (but any non-perishable\, not expired food or toiletries will be accepted). If you can contribute with some of these\, that will be very much appreciated but it is not a requirement to participate.Shaped Pasta NoodlesTomato PasteWhite BeansChickpeas/Garbanzo BeansCanned ChickenSardinesCanned Green BeansCanned peasCanned CornBar Soap \n\n\n\nSNEAKER COLLECTION:We will also be collecting gently used sneakers/cleats (no other shoe types) for our GotSneakers fundraising program. Sizes 3.5 and higher are accepted. We’ll make sure they get a second chance to be useful\, either for somebody else or to be properly recycled. \n\n\n\nHELP US FIND MORE LOCATIONS TO CLEAN:If you have seen litter in the Cascades area (park\, roadway\, school\, anything) that is in need of folks to clean up\, please email alicia@keeploudounbeautiful.org and report it so we can add it to our list of areas to clean up. \n\n\n\nCOMMUNITY SERVICE HOURSSince the Cascades Trash Bash & Food Drive is a community service event\, it most likely qualifies for community service hours for your school\, scout troop\, or other organization. Just be sure to bring your forms for us to sign.
