Woodward Tourism and the City of Woodward are excited to announce the Woodward Spring Clean-Up Day on April 22, 2025, in celebration of Earth Day and as part of the Great American Clean-Up initiative. This community-wide event invites individuals, families, and organizations to join in a collective effort to clean up public spaces throughout the town, helping to make Woodward a cleaner, greener place to live, work, and visit.
The City of Woodward is proud to be an affiliate of Keep Oklahoma Beautiful, and thanks to their generous support, they will provide this event with 100 safety vests, 100 pairs of gloves, and 300 trash bags for the volunteers. Additionally, Woodward Tourism will be providing water, sunscreen, lip balm, and hand sanitizer to ensure volunteers stay hydrated and protected during the clean-up.
