KINGMAN – The City of Kingman’s Day of Caring will take place Saturday, April 4, from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. River Cities United Way, along with City of Kingman Solid Waste Department and the Clean City Commission, have been organizing this event and providing supplies for the past several years to help insure event success. Volunteers can meet at 2202 Hualapai Mountain Road (Foothills Bank) to receive their supplies for cleanup.
We would like to caution motorists around the city that volunteers will be out along roadways, so to use extra caution as these volunteers work to beautify the city. Volunteers need to be aware of traffic and should face toward the direction of traffic when close to the road.
