Know and shape your community If you live in unincorporated Clackamas County, a community planning organization (CPO) is a great way to have a voice in the livability of your community. These organizations are run by neighbors who care about local challenges and growth issues. They welcome participation by everyone in the area. www.clackamas.us/ community/cpo CPOs in your area Help maintain roads near you Are you ready to get out and connect with your community? The Clackamas Water Environment Services (WES) event calendar is full of fun and meaningful opportunities. Whether you are looking to give back, volunteer with like-minded individuals to help clean up our waterways or bring out the entire family to learn about climate resiliency and biodiversity — there’s an event for you! WES is committed to offering events that connect residents with community partners. Last year, more than 1,700 volunteers removed over 31,000 pounds of litter from waterways and natural areas. SOLVE cleanups mobilize and educate volunteers of all ages about the importance of protecting our shared environment and how we can build a legacy of stewardship. Find WES and other county events at: www.clackamas.us/events Help Keep Clackamas County Clean and Beautiful, Adopt-A-Road Help maintain county roads by volunteering to clean up litter along a roadway near you. The county will help coordinate your event — removing bagged garbage, and supplying you with grapplers, safety vests, plastic bags, and roadside warning signs. To recognize community groups and individuals who clean at least one mile of road twice a year, the county will install a road sign in your honor.
