Volunteers and municipal staff will join together to collect trash and debris along the Ellicott
Trail.
Please join us on Saturday, April 24, 2021 at 9:00 a.m. in the parking lot behind the City of
Batavia Fire Station on Evans Street (behind 18 Evans street).
Gloves, trash bags, and a trail assignment will be given out to complete the 5 miles of Ellicott
Trail. The disposal of all trash collected will be handled by City of Batavia Bureau of
Maintenance.
EARTH DAY Cleanup is a coordinated volunteer event, providing opportunities for individuals
and organizations to make positive, tangible impacts on our environment and to keep the Ellicott
Trail clean.
“The City of Batavia thanks all those community members who are volunteering to cleanup and
keep Ellicott Trail looking good this EARTH DAY Cleanup Weekend. Your help to keep our
City clean and safe is much appreciated,” said Eugene Jankowski Jr., City Council President.
Vice Chairwoman of the Genesee County Legislature and City Resident, Marianne Clattenburg
said, “By joining together and assisting in the cleanup effort, we can give residents and visitors a
better experience on the Ellicott Trail. I am excited to participate and hope community members
and service groups will join us.”
“Ellicott Trail was built as a collaborative partnership between the City, Town and County and
we will continue to maintain the Trail for public use and enjoyment. While this is the inaugural Trail Cleanup there will be many more opportunities to volunteer and keep our collective community beautiful,” said Chad Zambito, Town Board member, Town of Batavia.
