It’s spring! That means it’s time for the 2nd Annual Lamond-Riggs Spring Clean.

The Spring Clean events will bring together neighbors to make our community healthier and more beautiful. Volunteers will remove trash from neighborhood streets and alleyways across the Lamond-Riggs neighborhood, and have an opportunity to learn about the Anacostia River watershed through the installation of three artistic storm drain murals that were selected by popular community vote at the Lamond-Riggs Citizens Association December 2018 meeting.

Events are lined up for March 30, April 6, and April 13. Note: Each event would be shifted to the following Saturday in case of inclement weather on the originally scheduled date.
