Brazos Valley Cleanup Challenge!
The Brazos Valley Cleanup Challenge is an annual cleanup event open to all communities in the Brazos Valley region (Brazos, Burleson, Grimes, Leon, Madison, Robertson, and Washington Counties) who want to clean up their community.
Your community can help us to make the Brazos Valley the cleanest region in the State of Texas!
Oh! There is a trophy involved! The entry that picks up the most trash between March 1 and May 31, 2023 will be the BIG WINNER!!!
Take photos to show how many bags of trash have been collected.
The Brazos Valley Cleanup Challenge is a program designed to support the local efforts of Keep Texas Beautiful affiliates, non-profits, volunteers, corporations, scout groups, and other community groups as they collaborate efforts with their cities and counties throughout the region. The cleanup events can take place in any public area, such as parks, schools, main street/downtown, watershed areas, and roadways.
Participants may enter as a city, community, or a county and one of them will be the BIG WINNER!
The community with the most litter collected during their cleanup can proudly display their trophy in their City Hall or in their County. Each year the trophy will move from Community to Community adding their name to the legacy of litter cleanup efforts in the Brazos Valley.
