From April 16 – 30 cleanup teams are asked to collect trash in designated areas of Mason City. Businesses, organizations, families of all sizes, and individuals are encouraged to be part of a team. Garbage bags and gloves will be provided for teams and disposal of trash will be handled by the City Sanitation Dept.

To register a team, host a booth at the festival, or become a sponsor please contact or visit the Mason City Earth Day website at: www.earthdaynorthiowa.org; or contact the Mason City Volunteer Coordinator at 641-423-3372.

The Mason City Earth Day Festival will be held at the Lime Creek Nature Center just north of Mason City on Saturday, April 28 from 10 a.m. – Noon. It will feature food, music, educational booths and Earth Day-related activities for persons of all ages, according to Missy Nicholson, Earth Day Committee Chair.
