The City of Alamogordo and the Alamogordo Parks & Recreation Department will recognize the adopter group/individual by providing them with a certificate of adoption and, if funding allows, a sign recognizing the group/individual’s adopted spot.
If funding allows, the Alamogordo Parks & Recreation Department will post a sign recognizing the group/individual at the adopted spot 2 quarters after the date of adoption in which the group/individual has completed cleanup events. The sign will be one of three sizes, depending on the length of time the group/individual has successfully maintained their spot:
The signs will be placed in a visible location near the adopted spot.
Adopter groups/individuals can request litter kits by contacting the Alamogordo Parks Division office. The office will provide litter kits to adopter groups/individuals on a first-come, first-served basis. Adopter Group/individual must notify the Parks Division 48 hours before the anticipated litter pick-up event to coordinate the Litter Cleanup Kit collection and return.
Adopter groups/individuals are required to report their cleanup events to the Adopt-A-Spot Page located on the City of Alamogordo website. The report will include information including, but not limited to, the date, time, location, and number of volunteers who participated in the cleanup.
The term of agreement for the Adopt-A-Spot program is one year.

If an adopter group/individual fails to renew their agreement within 30 days of the agreement's expiration date, the Alamogordo Parks & Recreation Department will take steps, up to but not limited to, termination of the adoption agreement.
Adopter groups or individuals who do not maintain their adopted spot may be subject to penalties up to, but not limited to, termination of the adoption agreement.
