TooeleServes
Now, in 2026, Mayor Maresa Manzione is proud to carry that legacy forward with a refreshed vision: TooeleServes
This year is especially meaningful as our community joins the nationwide celebration of America250—marking 250 years of our nations' history. As part of this historic milestone, Tooele City is proud to align with America Gives, a movement encouraging communities across the country to take part in what aims to be the largest volunteer effort in U.S. history.
TooeleServes builds on the strong foundation of #TakePrideTooele while expanding the focus to emphasize service, connection, and community impact. It's an opportunity for residents, businesses, and organizations to be part of something bigger—serving locally while contributing to a nationwide effort.
Our annual Spring Clean Up continues to be a cornerstone of this initiative, bringing together more than 300 volunteers each year who contribute hundreds of hours of service. This year, we invite you to take that impact even further by participating in the TooeleServes Challenge, part of the Tooele City America250 community challenges.
Through the TooeleServes Challenges, residents can log their volunteer hours at https://tooelecity.rja.revize.com/forms/13313 to help showcase the collective impact of our community while contributing to the spirit of America Gives.
Together, through TooeleServes, we honor our past, celebrate this historic year, and build a stronger future—one act of service at a time.
2026 Spring Clean Up Projects and Ideas
TooeleServes is the theme for our Citywide spring clean up event!
As residents, businesses, and organizations in Tooele City, we know that you care about your community, and want Tooele City to be a place where we all love to live, work, and play. There are many opportunities for everyone to participate. We are extending an invitation to our residents of all ages to clean up their own property. We also invite you to offer help in your own neighborhood to those who are not able to take care of their own property (don’t forget our seniors and those who are disabled). We also have a list of community projects where your family, group, or organization could volunteer (i.e. beautify the cemetery, parks, roadways, etc.).
For questions or to sign up for a Community Project, please call or email Louise Wiedmer at louisew@tooelecity.gov or 435.843.2142.

Trees
Spring is an excellent time for home owners to check trees and ensure there are no problems for others. Trees are the ANSWER, but can also be the PROBLEM. Trees can hurt individuals, and can also contribute to vehicle damage. It is important to trim trees that hang out into the street. A height of 12’6″ feet is required for vehicles to pass under. On a sidewalk, a height of 8′ is necessary for individuals to walk underneath. If you have any questions, please feel free to call our Public Works office at 435.843.2130.
Follow us on our Facebook Page for updates, ideas, and information.
This is a great opportunity to serve! Citizens and businesses play a critical role in beautifying our community!

This year for #TakePrideTooele Day we will be cleaning up the Tooele City Community Center and the Ritz Theatre! Mayor Winn and the Tooele City Council invite you to join them on #TakePrideTooele Day - Saturday, May 18, 2024 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon.
#TakePrideTooele Neighborhood Cleanup Trailer
Check out our #TakePrideTooele Neighborhood Cleanup Trailer! It is available for loan to Tooele City Community residents and community groups free of charge (minimum of 5 households or a group with ten or more volunteers).
Trees
Spring is an excellent time for home owners to check trees and ensure there are no problems for others. Trees are the ANSWER, but can also be the PROBLEM. Trees can hurt individuals, and can also contribute to vehicle damage. It is important to trim trees that hang out into the street. A height of 12’6″ feet is required for vehicles to pass under. On a sidewalk, a height of 8′ is necessary for individuals to walk underneath. If you have any questions, please feel free to call our Public Works office at 435.843.2130.
Follow us on our Facebook Page for updates, ideas, and information.
This is a great opportunity to serve! Citizens and businesses play a critical role in beautifying our community!

We want to thank all the businesses, organizations, and community members who participated in this year’s #TakePrideTooele Spring Clean Up. Special thanks goes out to Caring Kids Club and Tooele High School Students who dedicated their time beautifying the Tooele Valley Museum and Historical Park - their contributions made a remarkable difference!
A big shout out to everyone who joined us for this year’s #TakePrideTooele Saturday Spring Clean Up Day. Thanks to the collaborative efforts of the Rotary Club, Tooele East Stake, Members of the Utah National Guard, Community Members, Tooele City Mayor Debbie Winn and Staff, and Tooele City Council Members, we successfully tackled multiple projects. From cleaning the Ritz Theater, to enhancing Veterans Park with fresh paint on railings, and completing Phase 1 of our Community Center Renovation Project, every effort made a positive impact on our community.
We aren’t done yet at the Community Center! We will soon add new trim and artwork on the outside of the building, and will be working on the landscaping. The Community Center is a great gathering place for families, organizations, and our community.
There are many opportunities for everyone to participate year-round in #TakePrideTooele to help keep our City a “Hometown to be proud of!”
