Hello Peoria kids and families! Are you ready to make a difference and have a blast while doing it? Well, mark your calendars because Community Cleanup Day is just around the corner, and we want you to be part of this exciting event! On Saturday, October 16th, let’s come together and make our beloved Peoria shine brighter than ever before. With your help, we can transform our community into a place we can all be proud to call home!
Why Should You Join Us?
Taking part in Community Cleanup Day is an amazing opportunity to show love and care for our neighborhoods. We believe that children have incredible power to make changes and create a positive impact. By participating, you’ll not only be making Peoria more beautiful, but you’ll also learn valuable lessons about teamwork, the environment, and being good neighbors.
The Planning Begins
To make this day truly remarkable, our fantastic team of organizers has spent weeks putting together an action-packed itinerary. Imagine a fun-filled day of cleaning up parks, planting flowers, and spreading joy in our community. But that’s not all – there will also be exciting games, delicious snacks, and even some surprise entertainment to keep you motivated and entertained throughout the day!
Grab Your Gloves, It’s Cleanup Time!
On Saturday morning, join us bright and early at the beautiful Peoria Sports Complex, where the big kickoff event will take place! You’ll receive your very own cleanup kit, complete with gloves, trash bags, and all the tools you’ll need to make a difference.
From there, we’ll split into smaller teams, and each team will head to a designated area within the community that is in need of a little extra love and care. Whether it’s picking up litter, pulling weeds, or painting over graffiti, every action, no matter how big or small, will have a tremendous impact on improving our surroundings.
Show Your Creativity at the Art Station
After a successful morning of cleaning, it’s time to let your creative side shine! Swing by the art station, where you can design unique and colorful thank you cards for our local heroes, like police officers, firefighters, and teachers. Let’s spread some brightness and gratitude to those who make a difference in our lives each day!
Unforgettable Experiences Await
While we’re focused on making Peoria cleaner, we certainly don’t forget to have fun! The organizers have a ton of surprises up their sleeves to make this Community Cleanup Day a day to remember.
How about a performance by a magician? Or face painting stations where you can transform into your favorite character or animal? And let’s not forget about the delicious treats like cotton candy and popcorn that will put a smile on everyone’s faces! We guarantee these activities will make you forget you’re working at all!
The Power of Giving Back
Community Cleanup Day is also an opportunity to learn about the importance of giving back to those in need. We have partnered with several local organizations who will be collecting donations throughout the day, such as canned goods, gently used clothing, and school supplies. These donations will go a long way in supporting our less fortunate neighbors, providing them with the essentials they need and spreading hope and kindness throughout our community.
Conclusion
Peoria kids, this is your chance to make your mark and show the world what you’re capable of! The time has come to rally together, roll up our sleeves, and make Peoria a cleaner, more vibrant place to live. Join us on October 16th for a day filled with excitement, connection, and the joy of giving back. Let’s celebrate the beauty of our community and the incredible feeling of making a difference.
