Thank you to our Garbage Olympians!

On Saturday, September 23, OPDC fielded a Central Oakland team for the Garbage Olympics, Pittsburgh’s yearly citywide trash-collecting competition. Our 72 volunteers put in a Herculean effort, collecting 116 bags of trash, a bike frame, and tire.

If the Garbage Olympics awakened a love for litter-collection, make sure to sign up for Adopt-a-Block. Thanks to everyone who took part—we’ll see you next year!
