Keep Irving Beautiful (KIB) will host its 33rd annual Trash Bash on Saturday, Sept. 28, from 9 a.m. to noon at T.W. Richardson Grove Park. Volunteers will focus on cleaning the northern Campion Trail area to prevent litter from reaching the Elm Fork of the Trinity River. The event coincides with National Public Lands Day and is part of Keep Texas Beautiful’s “Fall Sweep.”

KIB will provide litter pickers, gloves, and bags for trash and recycling. After the cleanup, volunteers can explore educational exhibits and enjoy a provided lunch, with a vegetarian option available.

Participants are encouraged to bring nonperishable food donations for Crisis Ministries of Irving Food Pantry. Donors will receive a T-shirt while supplies last.

For those preferring a virtual option, volunteers can clean up a safe location in Irving of their choice and share their results using #IrvingTrashBash2024. Event attendees must register by Sept. 20. For more information, visit CityofIrving.org/KIB or call (972) 721-2175.
