It's Time to Volunteer for the 4th Annual Geronimo and Alligator Creeks Clean Up!


You are needed for the upcoming Geronimo and Alligator Creeks Clean Up scheduled for Saturday, April 2, starting at 9 am.  Volunteers can make a noticeable difference by removing trash from roadways and creek banks in and around Seguin, Geronimo, and New Braunfels.  Volunteers will receive:
  • a breakfast taco
  • water bottle
  • necessary supplies to pick up trash
  • and a free T-shirt
Register by going to http://www.geronimocreek.org/ and clicking on the registration link.  Be sure to let us know which of the three locations you will show up at the morning of the event.  Participants can show up at:
  • Parker's Building Supply parking lot (1555 E Court St, Seguin)
  • Navarro High School Parking Lot, or
  • the New Braunfels Airport (corner of Entrance Drive and Airport Rd)
In order to allow adequate time for T-shirt production, registrations made after March 18 may not receive a free T-shirt.

Last year's event resulted in 195 volunteers collecting over 2,000 pounds of trash from 17 miles of roadway and creek banks! 

Corona Visions Inc will once again be offering E-waste recycling, so bring your old computers, laptops, phones, video game consoles, and even vhs players to the Parker location! Check out the complete list at http://www.geronimocreek.org/
