Join the litter cleanup at Twinbrook Park to take part in the Annual Potomac River Watershed Cleanup. It’s a fun, hands-on way to make a real difference close to home. All supplies will be provided, and students can earn SSL hours while helping protect our waterways. Space is limited and online registration for each volunteer is required. Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult. City staff will be present to greet volunteers in front of the Twinbrook Community Recreation Center. Please dress for the weather and wear sturdy, closed toed shoes.
This opportunity is available for student volunteers to earn SSL hours. Student participation in this service project is at the discretion of the student’s parent/guardian and must be completed outside of school hours. Parents/guardians should contact the nonprofit organization directly with any questions and/or concerns. The nonprofit is responsible for maintaining student safety and privacy at any time the student is interacting with the nonprofit and its clients. The nonprofit will determine the number of SSL hours awarded based on the evidence submitted. For SSL hours to be added to a student’s record, students must submit MCPS Form 560-51, Student Service Learning Activity Verification Form, to the school SSL coordinator by the due dates on the form (no later than the first Friday in June), which can be found at bit.ly/SSLReflection. Students will need to complete sections 1 and 3 of MCPS Form 560-51 in full. In lieu of section 2 of MCPS Form 560-51, students should attach the “SSL Hour Form” completed and provided to the student by the City of Rockville supervisor.
