April commemorates all things beautiful about the planet during Earth Month, and the city of Winter Park’s Natural Resources and Sustainability Department partners with Keep Winter Park Beautiful and Sustainable to put on the people-powered Great American Cleanup Saturday.

Locals may volunteer at one of five cleanup locations: Howell Branch Preserve, Ward Park, the Park Avenue area, Lake Baldwin Park’s off-leash area or Martin Luther King, Jr. Park. GAC is a nationwide effort that aims to tidy up 25,000 local communities between now and July.

The goal is to de-litter America’s public spaces and parks in time for the nation’s 250th birthday celebration. (Hopefully the federal ones will still be open by then.)

9 a.m. Saturday, April 5, various locations, cityofwinterpark.org, free.
