The program is a volunteer opportunity for residents, businesses, and civic-minded organizations to partner with the Corpus Christi Parks & Recreation Department to keep the community’s parks, beaches, and trails clean and attractive. The program gives participants a sense of park ownership and an outlet to give back to the community and protect the natural environment.

Potential partners have three opportunity tiers:
Tier 1: Monthly litter cleanup commitment of 1.5 hours
