2026 Keep It Clean COS Cleanup Finale
Join the Trails and Open Space Coalition for the finale of the 2026 Keep It Clean COS series!
When: Saturday, November 7, 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM
Where: Fred McKown Park, 5035 Balsam St, Colorado Springs, CO 80923
Meet at: The playground
Parking: Street parking on Balsam St
Registration is required: https://forms.gle/zx6D5YmXkP1eA4B27
What we’re doing
We’ll be cleaning up litter along the Homestead Trail and the Cottonwood Creek tributary that runs beside it. This creek is home to beaver, muskrats, and crawfish, so a cleaner creek is better for wildlife and for everyone who uses the trail.
What to bring and wear
Water
Closed-toe shoes and pants (no shorts)
Gloves (required, bring your own if you can)
Layers and a hat, since it could be cold, windy, or snowy
Updates will be posted here, on the TOSC website and social media, and by email to registered volunteers.
See you out there!
