Neighborhood Cleanup - Sat. April 20, 2024
location: SE 47th and SE Stark, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The Mt. Tabor Neighborhood Association (MTNA) is partnering again this year with the North Tabor Neighborhood Association (NTNA) on our annual neighborhood cleanup. The Unity Spiritual Center of Portland is allowing us to use their parking lot. You can find information about what you can drop off at the cleanup and much more at: https://www.northtabor.org/2023-neighborhood-cleanup-2/
We will NOT accept household hazardous waste at the cleanup. However, Metro is offering a number of free household hazardous waste drop off events in the community this spring. Click here for more info on what Metro will take and the dates/times/locations of the free community drop off events. Also note, small amounts of hazardous waste disposal are normally FREE for households, at the Metro Central Waste Transfer station on NW 61st Ave.; learn more here.
WE NEED VOLUNTEERS for this event!
Come spend a few hours and help people unload stuff from their vehicles, fill up the drop boxes, wrangle styrofoam and electronics, help people check in, and more. General shifts....8-11 a.m. 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. BRING YOUR OWN GLOVES. If interested in volunteering for this event, please fill out this survey or contact cleanup@northtabor.org.

What happened to the concerts in Mt. Tabor Park?
The short answer: volunteer fatigue. A small group of dedicated volunteers made these concerts happen for the rest of us for years, and they’ve moved on to other interests. But maybe one among you wants to take charge and start this up again? If so, contact us and we'll try to put you in contact with the previous volunteers.
