Rake the Town

Join us October 31 – November 6

Each fall, Active Generations brings the community together through Rake the Town, a volunteer-driven event that helps older adults and individuals with disabilities who need support with seasonal tasks prepare their yards for the winter season.

This annual effort connects caring volunteers with those who need a helping hand, and makes it possible for participants to stay safe, independent, and proud of their homes.

Need Assistance With Yard Cleanup?

If you or someone you know could benefit from Rake the Town, homeowner registration will be available soon.

How It Works

Rake the Town is a community-wide event serving individuals in the Sioux Falls area, including Brandon, who are:

  • Adults aged 60 and older who need assistance with yard work
  • Or individuals under 60 with a documented disability

Volunteers sign up to rake leaves and bag them during a designated week in the fall. Whether you’re an individual, family, business, or community group, participating is a meaningful way to give back while making a visible difference in your neighborhood. Rake The Town will take place October 31 – November 6.

If you are a Brandon homeowner, please call the Brandon Valley Area Chamber of Commerce at 605-582-7400 to sign up.
