We encourage all to get outside and Green Up!
Green Up Day Love Video Contest
Do you love to be in front of the camera? Create your own Green Up Day 30 second commercial, or statement, on what Green Up means to you, or how you participate in Green Up Day. Email the movie files to greenup@greenupvermont.org with a note that states your name and grade, school name, and teacher’s name. We will choose a statewide winner and with approval from all parties feature it on our social media channels. Your video could be next year's TV commercial! Prizes will be awarded.
An APP for working together while apart!
Green Up Vermont has an app that allows Vermonters to build (socially distant) teams, connect with instant messaging, plan trash pick up routes, drop trash pins on roads they have picked up, and even a leader board for friendly competition on how much trash has been picked up by team. Find the apps here:

Plogging for those who love to run!
Plogging is a Swedish activity (developed in 2016) that combines the act of picking up trash and jogging. A great idea for kids with lots of energy and/or kids who would normally be running track, playing lacrosse, spring soccer, softball, baseball or any other sport this spring season. Try your luck at Plogging. Use the APP mentioned above as well. Just think of how many miles of VT roads we could get cleaned up and how FUN it would be. Log your miles and send them via email greenup@greenupvermont.org to be included in the results, in marathon fashion.
Start planning now, there are only 15 days till Green Up Day - Saturday May 30! This event institutes great pride in all participants and does such great things for our state. I can’t wait to see and share the results of your enthusiasm for our 50th year of Green Up Day.
We promote participating in Green Up Day with safe social distance, and by wearing gloves and masks. Be safe everyone.
