Volunteers needed for spring cleanup

The Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau is seeking volunteers for a region-wide litter pickup day from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. April 24. The Pick Up the Poconos Spring Cleanup is being held in honor of Earth Day. This event is just one component of the PMVB’s “Pick Up the Poconos” campaign.

Anyone interested in helping the cause can fill out a volunteer form located at PoconoMountains.com. The deadline to sign up is 5 p.m. April 19.

There are four cleanup locations (one in each Pocono county) that volunteers can choose from. The PMVB’s visitor centers in Stroudsburg, Jim Thorpe, Hawley, Milford, and Honesdale will serve as the meeting point where volunteers can pick up trash bags, gloves, vests, and other supplies.

Volunteers are asked to hold Sunday, April 25 as a rain date.

The PMVB is in the process of planning the fourth annual Pick Up the Poconos Day on Sept. 25.
