Bring gloves, a refillable water bottle, and any tools you'd like to use to pick up trash, such as a poker or grabber. Trash bags will be provided, but feel encouraged to bring any old large bags you have, such as empty dog food bags, to help reduce plastic waste. Lunch will be provided afterward. (Be sure to bring your own plate and utensils to help ensure we're not creating extra waste with the meal.) To sign up, email info@fullcirclesustainability.org.

Show up to show the City Council that you support sustainability efforts in Topeka!

Simply stand up when asked during the presentation so the Council can see how many sustainability supporters Topeka has! For extra impact, wear a green shirt if you have one.
