ages residents to participate in
Fayetteville Beautiful to reduce

uled for Saturday, May 6 from 8

chison Road. Litter bags, gloves,
water and snacks will be provided

e city-sponsored program is
dedicated to encouraging others to
take greater responsibility for improv-
ing their environment through litter
abatement, waste reduction and
beautification programs.
Fayetteville Beautiful aligns with
the city's "Put Waste in its Place"
campaign that reminds residents
and visitors of their role in ensuring
Fayetteville remains a desirable place
to live, work and recreate. Here are
a few ways residents can help with
putting waste in its place: Use reus-
able containers; recycle bottles, cans,
paper, plastics; adopt a street/site
and keep it clean; provide adequate
trash and recycling containers, place
conspicuously and empty often.
Fayetteville Beautiful happens twice
per year, in the spring and fall. Volun-
teers collected 1.3 tons of litter at the
Spring 2022 event.
