If you love spending time outdoors, Amarillo, Texas, is a wonderful place to enjoy nature with your family. With so many public parks spread across the city, there are plenty of spots for picnics, walks, games, and relaxing weekends.
But sadly, some people don’t treat these parks with care, leaving trash and litter behind. It spoils the beauty for others. The good news? You can help make a difference this summer!
Amarillo’s Parks Need Your Help
While the city’s parks are well-designed and enjoyable, they only stay beautiful when everyone takes care of them. Unfortunately, littering remains a common problem. Visitors sometimes leave behind plastic bottles, wrappers, or bags, ruining the natural charm of these public spaces.
To fix this, Amarillo Parks and Recreation often organizes clean-up events. These short events give residents a chance to come together and keep the parks clean and green.
Martin Road Park Clean-Up Day: June 7, 2025
One such clean-up event has just been announced for Martin Road Park. Amarillo Parks and Recreation, in partnership with Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages, will host this event on Saturday, June 7, 2025.
Here are the key details:
- Location: Martin Road Park, Amarillo
- Date: Saturday, June 7, 2025
- Time: 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM
It will only take two hours of your time, but your help will go a long way in improving the park for everyone.
Volunteer Perks: Swag Bags Available
To thank volunteers for their time and support, swag bags will be handed out—while supplies last. These gift bags are a small gesture to appreciate those who step up and help keep Amarillo clean.
If you’re interested, make sure to register early, as supplies are limited and participation is expected to be high.
Why Clean-Up Events Matter
While clean-up days are a great way to involve the community, it would be even better if we didn’t need them at all. That’s why it’s important to throw away your trash or take it with you whenever you visit a park. If everyone does their part, we can reduce the need for such events and keep our public spaces clean all year round.
Remember: a small action from you can make a big difference for everyone.
