There are five locations in Brentwood:
- Corner of Dainty and Central. This is a great place for those that can move up and down
the bank. - Homecoming Park located at 2040 Homecoming Way. Last year between here and the Brentwood Tech Center we found 1/4 of all of the 5.25 tons of trash picked up in one day. If you want to pick up some serious trash come out to this site!
- Ron Nunn School/ Apple Hill Site located on Rose Brook Terrace off of Central. This is the fifth year that Apple Hill and Summerset Residents took on cleaning up Sand Creek which runs in to Marsh Creek!
- Creekside Park This is the most friendly stretch of clean up in Brentwood for those with mobility issues including older people, small children and those in wheelchairs!
- Bristow Middle School located at 855 Minnesota Ave – Two creeks at one location! This is another family friendly spot with easy access. We already have a good number of folks registered at this site- Please consider Homecoming or Creekside Park.
