PMBC's Clean Block Contest

Win Cash Prizes


2011 Contest Winners 


Blocks organized for at least two years and registered with PMBC  are eligible to join PMBC's annual Clean Block Contest. The Clean Block Contest is held after the cleaning season. Judges visit each contest block and evaluate them on organization, cleanliness, improvements, and participation. The winning blocks are announced at a gala Clean Block Banquet, where each participating block receives a cash award.

 

The Clean Block Contest is intended to motivate and excite block residents, recognize them for their achievements, and to hold them up as an example to the rest of the City.  These hard working people - like all of us - appreciate recognition for a job well done.  To be considered in the competition with other top achievers is in itself an honor, but to be selected as the leading Clean Block is high praise indeed.

 

Community Spirit Awards

 

In 2001, three (3) new awards were introduced. The Community Spirit Awards, also announced at the gala Clean Block Banquet, were established to reflect, recognize special residents and programs that truly make a difference in Philadelphia communities:

  • Junior Block Captain Award
  • PMBC Neighborhood Transformation Award for Beautification Projects
  • Neighbors Helping Neighbors Award 
      

For more information about the Clean Block Contest, contact your PMBC Clean Block Officer.
