Green-Up Day 2015 is April 25th! In year's past, Green-Up Day has focused solely on Burnet Woods. While Burnet Woods is a beautiful place that needs community support to reach its full potential; for the first time in 2014 the Center for Community Engagement and the Cincinnati Parks shared the Green-Up Day love with other parks surrounding the University of Cincinnati's Uptown Campus. The goal of Green-Up Day is to beautify and maintain our precious public green-spaces so the entire community can fully enjoy them in their seasons of highest use. Public parks are a simple but profoundly important component of a community's quality of life, they are a place where people from all backgrounds come together to connect with nature, recreate, and build stronger communities.
