Go Green and Clean Campaign 2026
Community groups and volunteers are invited to participate in this year's Go Green & Clean volunteer program. Groups may choose a project from the list or propose a new project. The City of Pierre will provide garbage bags and gloves. Supplies can be picked up at the Solid Waste Facility in Pierre. Volunteers are encouraged to haul collected debris to the Solid Waste Facility so materials can be weighed and included in campaign totals. Interested in participating or have a project idea?
