Recently, the South Main Association took part in “Hook Up to Clean Up”, a volunteer event focused on cleaning up Downtown Memphis.

In partnership with Great American Cleanup

Three areas were targeted as part of the Great American Cleanup initiative – South Main, the Riverfront and Uptown.

Volunteer check-in

Volunteer registration began promptly at 9 am to get our teams organized for the event. We’re proud to say that on April 14, 2012, we had 87 volunteers arrive at three locations to help beautify our city. Our generous and eager volunteers helped make this event a success while making our city even better.

Working as a team to clean up South Main

The volunteers’ time was rewarded both with a rejuvenated cityscape as well as a post-clean up party. After hauling out the trash all morning, a party to celebrate a freshly-scrubbed Memphis was well deserved.
