Minturn Town Clean-Up is Saturday
The town of Minturn will hold its annual Town Clean-Up Day on Saturday.
This year, the event will be held in the upper parking lot of Little Beach Park on Cemetery Road, allowing staff and volunteers to more efficiently assist citizens as they bring unwanted items to discard.
The annual cleanup provides the citizens of Minturn with a free and convenient receptacle to deposit their appliances, debris and undesired items from their property and home.
The Minturn Public Works Department staff will be at Little Beach Park parking lot to help unload vehicles.
As in years past, there will be volunteers from Battle Mountain Development Company, the Minturn-Redcliff Business Association and the town of Minturn with trucks to assist residents with transporting their large, unwanted items to the dumpsters.
