Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Stop by a neighborhood cleanup in Germany Hill. The volunteer page says anyone can join cleanups, weekly or occasionally..

You can just show up. No sign up needed.

What to expect

Cleanups remove trash and debris in Germany Hill and nearby areas, working with the Roxborough Manayunk Conservancy and Ivy Ridge Green, and they happen through the year. Quarterly meetings are open to members and guests, and recent ones were held both in person and on Zoom. Dues can be paid in person at a meeting or through PayPal.

Tips for your first visit

  • The cleanup schedule link on the volunteer page is labeled 2020, so ask the group which cleanup is next before you go.
  • Recent quarterly meetings were held in person and on Zoom, so check which format the next one uses.
  • If you want to help with historic preservation, contact the preservation committee first, since the page asks people to reach out before joining.

Newcomer welcome

Welcoming to newcomers (4 out of 5). Why we say this: The volunteer page says a first-timer can arrive at a cleanup without registering first, and the homepage invites new neighbors to join, volunteer or get involved. The site describes no separate newcomer program..
