The City of Perry Promotes Clean Neighborhoods, Health, and Housing
The Perry Trash Dash and Community Health & Housing Fair is scheduled for April 2.

The City of Perry will host two events to promote clean, vibrant neighborhoods and offer free health and housing workshops on April 2.

The Perry Trash Dash is scheduled for Saturday, April 2 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

This City-wide event is designed to support community engagement and promote clean, vibrant neighborhoods. Participants are encouraged to register as an individual or team to see who can pick up the most trash around the city. Trash collected will be weighed at the end of the event and shared on the City of Perry’s social media.

Participants will meet at the Perry Events Center (1121 Macon Road) between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. to pick up supplies. Trash can be dropped off at bag drop locations throughout the city during the course of the event.

Registration for the Perry Trash Dash is here.

After the Dash event, the public is invited to attend the Community Health & Housing Fair from noon to 2:00 p.m. at the Perry Events Center (1121 Macon Road) for free workshops, clinics, and demonstrations from various Houston County health and housing professionals while browsing a variety of vendor booths. Activities for adults and children will be available. Learn more on the Facebook Event page.
