PASCO COUNTY, FL —- Pasco County is known for its beaches, natural coastlines, wildlife and hiking trails that all add up to a great quality of life.

Disposable gloves, trash bags and Great American Cleanup T-shirts will be provided while supplies last.

“Trash and litter cleanups are so important because they prevent pollution of soil, water, and air, and safeguard wildlife from dangerous and harmful debris,” said Keep Pasco Beautiful Coordinator Ligia Martello Buchala. “This event is committed to improving the quality of life for humans and animals in Pasco County by keeping it clean and safe.”

In 2024, more than 1,000 volunteers picked up nearly 19.5 tons of trash at 52 locations throughout Pasco. The goal this year is to increase the number of volunteers so we can clean more sites. This event is a partnership with Keep Pasco Beautiful, Pasco County Solid Waste, Pasco County Public Works, Reworld Pasco, the Surfing’s Evolution & Preservation Foundation and Tampa Bay Water.
