The City of Amsterdam Earth Day Cleanup

The City of Amsterdam Earth Day Cleanup Sponsored by Century 21 Purtell Realty

The City of Amsterdam celebrates Earth Day with our annual Earth Day Cleanup Sponsored by Century 21 Purtell Realty on Saturday, April 18th from 8:30am-1pm at Veterans Park (lower parking lot).

Mayor Cinquanti stated “Two great Amsterdam events on the same day. In the first one you work up an appetite working side by side with friends and neighbors to help your city look better. Then you quench that appetite with some of the best wings on the planet, prepared by outstanding family-owned Amsterdam eateries! A great day for a great city!”

“I am pleased to sponsor the city-wide spring cleanup once again.” Robert Purtell went onto saying “It is amazing to see our community come together and take pride in their neighborhoods.”
