Mirror Lake Cleanup

Stewards of Our Urban Lakes and Keep Pinellas Beautiful are excited to host monthly cleanups at Mirror Lake! Mirror Lake was the very first water source for St. Pete and previously named Reservoir Lake. The lake's history is very special for the city and the surrounding historic landmarks are what they are because Mirror Lakes sits at the center of this beautiful neighborhood.

We invite volunteers to participate in making a difference in our St. Pete community. We can make an impact and have fun at the same time while sharing an appreciation for the people in our community, the history, and local wildlife. Keeping Mirror Lake beautiful is a top priority, and we are excited to meet others who share this same passion for our city and love for living here.

Throughout the year, volunteers will have the opportunity to assist with invasive vegetation removal along the shoreline, litter cleanup of the lake and surrounding area, and installation of native vegetation. We hope you can join us!

Please note: Volunteers under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
