Upcoming Board Meetings, Events, and Volunteer Opportunities – Open to the Public

Monthly Board Meetings are held on the Second Monday of each month at 6:00 pm at Birnie Bus Service, 248 Otis Street, in the upstairs conference room.

Committee Meetings are held at the convenience of each working group. CONTACT US for more details on the projects that interest you!

Great American Clean Up – Each year, Keep America Beautiful Affiliates across the nation come together to clean up our neighborhoods, parks, trails, and waterways. Here in Rome, we celebrate the arrival of spring with clean up and beautification initiatives from April 1 – May 31, with special events throughout this time period. Groups hosting their own events are strongly encouraged to REGISTER their activities with Rome Clean and Green, and then REPORT their results so that we can measure the volunteer impact. We also invite you to be a part of one of our very special Great American Clean Up activities!

  • 4/15-5/25 – Bikes in Bloom – Community Upcycling and Beautification Program
