Claremont Clean Up Day 2026
This year’s Claremont Clean Up Day was a success! We are very thankful for all of the local residents, students, and businesses who came out to help us clean up the town we love!
At The Ink Factory, we believe that strong communities are built by people who care about where they live. That’s why we were proud to host our Community Clean Up Day here in Claremont, bringing together local volunteers for a day dedicated to giving back to the town we all call home.
The event started at The Ink Factory, where community members gathered bright and early before heading out across Claremont to help clean up parks, sidewalks, streets, and public spaces. Armed with gloves, trash bags, and plenty of community spirit, volunteers worked together to make a visible difference throughout the city.
One of the best parts of the day was seeing neighbors, families, local businesses, and friends all working side by side with one shared goal: keeping Claremont clean, welcoming, and beautiful for everyone.
After the cleanup wrapped up, volunteers returned to The Ink Factory for a free community lunch as a small thank you for their hard work and dedication. It was a great opportunity for everyone to relax, connect, and celebrate what can happen when a community comes together.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who participated, donated time, or helped support the event. Your effort and enthusiasm are what make days like this possible.
Community Clean Up Day is more than just picking up litter. It’s about pride in our town, building connections, and creating positive change together. We’re already looking forward to the next one and hope to see even more familiar and new faces join us.
Thank you, Claremont, for helping make our community stronger one clean street at a time.
