Team captain Susan Shinego led her crew to victory in the citywide competition, which challenged residents to clean up litter in their communities. For their efforts, the winning team received an elite game day experience watching the Jacksonville Jaguars take on the New York Jets, a box of Jaguars merchandise, and a photo opportunity with Mayor Deegan.

"The Jax Litter League shows what Jacksonville can accomplish when neighbors come together for our city," said Mayor Deegan. "Susan and her team didn't just collect trash, they're helping to build cleaner, stronger communities across the Northside. This is exactly the kind of grassroots action that makes Jacksonville beautiful."

The Jax Litter League is part of Mayor Deegan's "Keep Jax Cute, Don't Pollute" initiative, a comprehensive anti-blight effort aimed at keeping Jacksonville's neighborhoods clean and vibrant. The program encourages residents to take an active role in maintaining their communities while fostering civic pride and environmental stewardship.

Teams from across Jacksonville participated in the second round of this contest, collectively removing thousands of pounds of litter from streets, parks, and public spaces throughout the city.
