Mayor Walker's Clean Team
The Old Bridge Clean Communities Program, Mayor Walker's Clean Team, works closely with the municipal government, schools, neighborhood committees and various local 501c3 groups to keep Old Bridge clean through public education and litter removal projects. Annual activities include park cleanups, beachfront cleanups, and local roads. We also host special events such as Earth Day, International Coastal Cleanup Day, Old Bridge Day and education programs throughout our schools.
Picking up litter is more than just a way of beautifying our roads. We are trying to have our residents take responsibility for their actions and take pride in our environment. Working for The Mayor's Clean Team is a win-win for everyone involved. Local groups are raising money for their cause, our roadways are getting cleaned and most importantly, we are all working together as a community.
Contact the Clean Communities Coordinator if you are interested in organizing a cleanup….it is a rewarding service for any group, organization, or school!
On March 7, 2024 our Clean Communities Program, the Mayors Clean Team, was awarded the 2024 Municipal Program Award from the New Jersey Clean Communities Council! The award was accepted by Mayor Debbie Walker and our Clean Communities Coordinator, Barbara Grippe, at the 2nd Annual Sustainability Conference in Atlantic City. Congratulations to our entire Clean Communities Team as well as our Auxiliary Police Officers, without whom the program could not run!
