Trashy Thursdays kick-off this week!

Mammoth Lakes Library

Trashy Thursdays is a community partnership between the Town of Mammoth Lakes, Mammoth Mountain Ski Area, Mammoth Lakes Tourism, the U.S. Forest Service, Mammoth Lakes Recreation, Waste Connections, and local volunteers, all working together to keep Mammoth Lakes clean.

Meeting Thursdays throughout the summer, volunteers are provided with trash bags and litter grabbers to clean up litter around town. Join us and make a difference.

Join us for Trashy Thursdays and help keep Mammoth clean. New this year: events will take place on the last Thursday of each month, June–September.

Meet us from 5–7 PM to help clean up, then enjoy complimentary food from a local establishment. Don’t miss out, join the fun and make a positive impact together.

Swing by our website to get more info and future dates/locations for this season.
