On Saturday, October 12th, 2024 we encourage everyone to come participate in a friendly competition between the four wards of the City of Nacogdoches. The ward that collects the most trash will be honored with a special award from KNB.

​

This event will bring together residents from all four wards of Nacogdoches to compete in collecting the most trash. It’s a great opportunity to show your love for our community and help make a real difference. 

​

KNB encourages all residents to learn which ward they live in and participate in this event. Trash bags will be collected from 9 a.m. - noon on October 12th with the winning ward announced on KNB’s Facebook page.

​

Gather your friends, family, and organizations and come help make Nacogdoches a cleaner and more beautiful place!
