Borrego Community Cleanup

Borrego's community clean-up is held the first Saturday of every month, commencing at The Circle and fanning out to nearby areas either on foot or by car to pick up litter. The Chamber provides the bags and pickers; 

all you need to do is bring yourself.


The Community Clean-up will be on a summer hiatus during July and August. People can still pick up trash on their own schedules and in their neighborhoods, call Marcy Yates, (760) 767-4287 for more information.
