11. Great idea. Two suggestions
1. Try contacting a local scout troop (Boy or Girl). These groups are usually looking for service projects.

2. Just put up signs, announcing when and where the clean up will occur. Ask people to bring gloves and trash bags. (Buy a box of bags yourself so you don't run out). You will only get a few people, but as people see you cleaning, more will show up. Make some lemonade afterwords. I did this in my old neighborhood and it was bigger each time we did it. People who weren't able to help (seniors) provided snacks and drinks when we finished.

Let us know how it turns out.
