2023 Events

Please save the date for Scranton City Pride 2023, as we again partner with our friends at Scranton Tomorrow to launch a citywide cleanup and beautification initiative. Taking place from June 2-10, Scranton City Pride will feature trash and litter cleanups, planting efforts, and other neighborhood beautification efforts. Participants can organize their family, neighbors, and coworkers to do a group project, or join up with a pre-planned service site.
A brand new event coming this year will be the Garbage Olympics, a two-hour competition on June 10th between West Scranton and Pine Brook on which team can clean up the most trash in their neighborhood. Interested in joining the fun? Then check out the website at https://www.garbageolympics.org/ for more information on how to get involved!

We are excited to bring to you Scranton's first annual Garbage Olympics as part of City Pride's week-long event! Join us in celebrating our pride for Scranton by registering a team for the Garbage Olympics!
