Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Pick a public cleanup or street event from the district's events calendar and come at the listed start time..
You can just show up.
What to expect
A cleanup on the calendar runs from 9 am to noon and is a morning of picking up litter in a park or along a street, with other volunteers. The listings do not say what to bring or whether tools are supplied. The calendar does not list prices for most events.
Tips for your first visit
- For the Pastorius Park clean-ups, check in at the warming hut and arrive for the 9 am start, since the listing says it begins promptly.
- Some listings name a rain date, so check the calendar the day before you go.
- The district office at 10 East Springfield Avenue is open Monday to Friday 8:30 am to 5 pm and Saturday 10 am to 4 pm; call 215-247-6696 to ask what to bring.
- The Chestnut Hill East and West Regional Rail lines serve the area, according to the district's resident FAQ.
Newcomer welcome
Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: Cleanups and street events are posted publicly with times and meeting spots, and the listings give no sign-up step..
