Community Steward - Adopt-A- Programs

Snow Hero
Become a Snow Hero
The Snow Hero Program is a "Neighbors Helping Neighbors" program that matches residents who need assistance to clear snow and ice from their sidewalks with a Snow Hero. The program is intended to assist residents who physically cannot remove snow from their adjacent sidewalks and do not have other resources to remove snow accumulation.
Snow Heroes will be matched with a nearby neighbor to help assist in clearing snow and ice from only the sidewalk(s) adjacent to the property within 48 hours of the conclusion of the most recent snow event.
