Cleanup area

Operation map

The primary cleanup area is the north side of Main Street, identified as Phelan Road on the map, between Astor Road and Verbena Road. Crews will concentrate on windblown trash that has collected along the fence line. HDK camp and volunteer check-in will be at the northeast corner of Astor Road and Main Street. If volunteer turnout and time allow, the cleanup may expand into the adjacent area shown on the map.
