Held on a Saturday in late spring/early summer
Sponsored by the West Carrollton Parks & Recreation Department and the City Beautiful Commission, Community Pride Day is a day of fun and service to the community. Volunteers are matched with elderly or disabled West Carrollton residents who need a helping hand with yard work. Typical projects include: mowing, trimming shrubs, planting flowers, weeding flower beds, weed trimming, and yard clean-up. All volunteers are served a picnic lunch at the Civic Center following the completion of projects.

Volunteers have commented, "I liked the feeling of unity and working for a common good." Asked what they enjoyed most about Community Pride Day, volunteers have said, "Giving back to the people of the community", and "Knowing that I helped someone in need."

Those residents who receive help through Community Pride Day are always appreciative of the hard work on their behalf. Many have said, "I don't know what I would have done if it wasn't for the volunteers."

Don't miss the chance to be a part of this day of service and community togetherness.
