North Dearborn Hill will be closed from 10:00 a.m. to noon for the clean-up in that area. Dearborn County Sheriff's deputies will be monitoring all roads for safety.

UPCOMING DEARBORN COUNTY ANTI-LITTER INITATIVE (DCALI) CLEAN-UPS Imore details will be released at a later date):

  • Saturday, March 28 - Cole Lane. Weather alternate date April 18. Thank you to Miranda Chase for helping with organizing.
  • Saturday, April 11 - State Line Hill. Thank you to Rich Martin of Sugar Ridge and the Bright Fire Department for continued help with organizing.

The DCALI thanks the Dearborn County Sheriff's Office, the Dearborn County Highway Department, the Bright Fire Department, and the Miller-York Fire Department for continued assistance.

If your neighborhood, organization, family, or individuals do a litter clean-up, please message DCALI with your pictures. It encourages others to do the same.

DCALI is a volunteer group that organizes clean-ups on roads or portions of roads that need to be closed during the clean-up. Some roads are difficult and unsafe for people to walk on and need to be temporarily closed.

Please note that DCALI clean-ups are planned fairly far in advance because DCALI must get approval for road closures from County Commissioners.
