Another Dumpster Clean Up event has come and gone.  Midtown residents managed to totally fill (to the brim!) four full sized dumpsters.  Seventy households participated and numerous residents made more than 2 trips.  Many items brought to this years clean up were given new homes…extending the life of the object and keeping that many more items out of local landfills.  Likewise two trucks full of metal scrap was taken to the recycle station. (Thanks Larry!)

Thanks to all of the volunteers who helped out at the clean up site and to those who went up and down the alleyways helping rid the neighborhood of unwanted street trash.

If you wish to be included in notifications of future clean up or other improvement activities,please contact our staff person Kelly Otto by calling 732-9191 or via e-mail at midtownmi@yahoo.com

Please join us on Saturday June 23, 2012 from 8a-12noon at Congress Elementary Schools parking lot, or whenever the dumpsters are filled, whichever is first.

Have you recently clean out your garage? Your attic? Your shed? Your alleyway?

We cannot accept tires, nor concrete chunks, nor paint/stain or chemicals.

We can accept almost anything other than tires, concrete and paint/chemicals

We will have a metal scrapper on site to take recyclable materials for re-use.  One third of the monies made from scrapping will be given to Midtown as a donation. These funds, and any other funds raised or donated will be used to maintain staff and annual events/activities.

This is a great way for Midtown’s Board and Staff to meet MANY neighbors in a short period of time.  The event if FREE.  Bring proof of Midtown residency (with a photo!).

Call Kelly at Midtown 732-9191 if you have questions.
