Shawnee’s Adopt-A-Spot program is designed to give volunteers an opportunity to contribute to the maintenance, improvement, and beautification of our community.
Who can volunteer?
Anyone can volunteer to Adopt-A-Spot. These projects are best done in groups, the minimum number for a group is three people. All ages are welcome, with a few limitations.
Where can we adopt?
Groups can adopt parks, streams, or streets within the Shawnee city limits. If there is a spot that is special to your group (like a park near your home or a street near your business), let the Volunteer Coordinator know and she will see if it is available.
What are we committing to?
Each group is committing to conducting at least four group clean-ups annually, for a two year period. After successful completion of two clean-ups, the City will place a sign at your spot to recognize your commitment to keeping Shawnee beautiful.
How do we get started?!
To get started, complete the Adopt-A-Spot Application or contact the Volunteer Coordinator for more information.
