The East Cobb Civic Association (ECCA) Board and its members play an important role in shaping Cobb County government decisions, initiatives, zoning and variance rulings that affect East Cobb neighborhoods. By staying engaged, ECCA members remain informed about key votes, meetings, and emerging issues, and are encouraged to actively voice their support or concerns to help protect and strengthen our community.
As part of ECCA’s ongoing commitment to strengthening and beautifying our community, our organization joined the Keep Cobb Beautiful (KCB) Adopt‑a‑Mile program several years ago. Four times each year, ECCA members gather along Johnson Ferry Road to maintain a clean and welcoming one‑mile stretch.
Our first cleanup of 2026 took place on Saturday, January 17, and we were thrilled with the turnout. The Adopt‑a‑Mile program is also an excellent opportunity for Boy Scouts and high school students to earn Community Service credit while making a visible difference in East Cobb.
Three additional cleanup dates are scheduled for 2026: April 18, July 18, and October 17. Volunteers meet at 10:00 a.m. at the back of the Publix parking lot at Johnson Ferry Road and Woodlawn Drive. Please bring gloves—trash bags and vests are provided.
ECCA welcomes all who want to help keep East Cobb beautiful.
