Take the Earth Pledge!

Welcome to the 2008
Mid-Columbia Earth Month and Community Cleanup!

This year we are implementing an exciting new way of getting involved during earth month - The Earth Pledge! The Earth Pledge is an on-line registration that will replace previous year's Volunteer & Project Registration Forms. It offers the same Earth Month activities of years past, such as projects and yards, as well as many new ways to get involved and make a positive impact on the environment.

Submit Your Pledge Results!
