The Greatest American Cleanup

Pasco County offers so much to enjoy—from our wide‑open spaces to our beautiful waterways—all contributing to a great quality of life. Keeping our community clean is a top priority for Keep Pasco Beautiful, which is why the nonprofit is once again partnering with Pasco County to recruit volunteers for the annual Greatest American Cleanup! Event Details:  WHEN:     Saturday, March 7, 2026  WHERE:  Various Locations Volunteer registration is open through February 27, 2026. Click HERE to register now! Disposable gloves, trash bags and Greatest American Cleanup T-shirts will be provided while supplies last. “Litter attracts litter, so these cleanups not only beautify a space, but they prevent litter as well,” said Keep Pasco Beautiful Coordinator John Fey. “About 80 percent of the trash in our waters originates from land, so we’re also protecting nurseries that so many creatures call home.” In 2025, over 1,000 volunteers picked up more than 23 tons of trash at 50 locations throughout Pasco. Help us increase the number of volunteers so we can clean more sites. This event is a partnership with Keep Pasco Beautiful, Pasco County Public Works, Reworld Pasco, the Surfing’s Evolution & Preservation Foundation and Tampa Bay Water.
