Volunteers plan to meet at city hall, then divide into groups to update 80 flower planters outside businesses, as well as weed and pick up trash.

Participants are encouraged to bring grabbers, yard tools and gloves.

The organization's recent Hilander Hustle Egg Hunt provided the money to purchase the plants from the Kelso High School FFA program, according to an event press release.

The Hilander Hustle Egg Hunt was a ticketed, Kelso-themed egg hunt held in March for fourth and fifth graders. The eggs contained prizes from candy and small toys to cash and local gift cards.

The organization also holds an adult egg hunt called the Shamrock Shuffle, though it was paused this year and will return in 2027, according to the association.
