Sign up today! REGISTER TODAY​ COVID-19 Update We are hopeful that the Omicron surge will decline in the latter part of January. As we are an outdoor event occurring at the end of February, we are currently moving forward with our plans for an in-person event. This is a fluid situation with health and safety at the forefront of the decisions being made. We will make a final decision by February 11th and notify participants accordingly. COVID-19 POLICY On the morning of the Cleanup, all attendees must use the USC Trojan Check Wellness screening form to confirm that they are not exhibiting any symptoms of COVID-19, nor are they under isolation or quarantine orders. The form is included in the waiver packet. While masks are not required for this event, we ask that attendees, vaccinated or unvaccinated, consider wearing them for their own protection and the protection of others. Unvaccinated individuals must wear a mask whenever they cannot maintain a 6’ physical distance from those outside of their household. Please note that protocols are subject to change.
