Groups are encouraged to conduct cleanups along waterways, in neighborhoods, and on school and church grounds; stencil storm drains or sign up for the city's Adopt-A-Road program.
Activities culminate at the Newtown Fall Festival Sept. 12, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., at Newtown Park, 3150 Old Alabama Road. Awards will be presented to cleanup groups.
