The event kicks off with a continental breakfast for all volunteers at 8:30 a.m. at St. Joseph ‘s Parish Hall, after which volunteers don gloves and “Clean Sweep†T-shirts, grab trash bags, and join other area business owners, residents, local politicians, community organizations, schools and fraternities to tidy up the parks, sidewalks and streets of New Paltz.
