The City of Cumming is proud to partner with Keep Forsyth County Beautiful in the annual Great American Cleanup. During the event, teams of volunteers fan out throughout the county to pick up litter along local roadways. This year's Great American Cleanup will begin at 9 a.m. April 25 at the Central Park Recreation Center, 2300 Keith Bridge Road. Volunteers will gather at the recreation center for a brief rally before heading out into the community for two hours of cleanup. Afterwards, they will return to the park for food and fun. The City of Cumming Utilities Department will have a team of volunteers taking part in the event. The department also partners with Keep Forsyth County Beautiful on several other cleanup and education events throughout the year, including Rivers Alive each fall and Adopt-A-Stream workshops several times annually. The Rivers Alive program is similar to the Great American Cleanup, but with a focus on waterways rather than roadways. Each year volunteers gather at Mary Alice Park in the city before cleaning up around Lake Lanier and other local streams and creeks. This year's Rivers Alive will begin at 9 a.m. Sept. 26. Adopt-A-Stream workshops are held on a regular basis in conjunction with Keep Forsyth County Beautiful. Through these workshops, individuals can sign up to monitor the health of streams and creeks near their homes or businesses. These workshops are slated for 8 a.m. Oct. 3 and 10 at City Hall. Additionally, the City of Cumming partners with Keep Forsyth County Beautiful and Georgia Adopt-A-Stream for an Amphibian Monitoring program, which allows residents to learn about the local amphibian population and how these creatures relate to water quality. This year's free Amphibian Monitoring class will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. May 2 at Central Park, 2300 Keith Bridge Road.
