Keep Issaquah Beautiful Day Clean Up

Keep Issaquah Day is an annual city-wide cleanup and beautification program organized and implemented by the Downtown Issaquah Association (DIA) and Kiwanis Club of Issaquah. With support from the City of Issaquah Parks & Rec, the program aims to clean up litter and garbage across the city, to beautify districts through weeding & planting and to maintain the upkeep of the Issaquah Downtown.

In 2022, DIA’s commitment to a clean city saw year-round & seasonal clean ups combine for over 600 volunteers who logged over 1,800 hours to help beautify their city. Our goal is for a similar turn out in 2023! The program runs year round with three large seasonal events (2023 dates: Earth Day, Saturday April 22, Saturday July 9 & Saturday November 11),
Grab a few friends and organize your own clean up! Clean up kit check-out is available year round.

Earth Day, Saturday, April 22, 2023

You are invited to roll up your sleeves and join in the city-wide clean up on Saturday, April 22, from 9:00am – 12:00pm. Then head back to the Historic Shell Station for community pizza at 1 pm. Check-in at the Historic Shell Station (232 Front Street N, Issaquah, WA 98027). Volunteers – both groups and individuals – are needed to spend a couple of hours making a difference in our community. All welcome to help with trash pickup, weeding & planting & sidewalk maintenance during the Earth Day 2023. There are jobs for all ages and abilities and flexible schedules. Participants are encouraged to bring their own work gloves. Students can earn their community service hours. Bring a friend, make new friends! Make a difference in your community. We are also looking for groups to lead cleanups in their own neighborhood email here
