Join us for a mini park cleanup this Saturday, December 6 from 10:00 AM–12:00 PM! 🌿🍂

We’ll be:
🧹 Grabbing the last of the fallen leaves
🗑️ Picking up trash
🌱 Moving the remaining piles of dirt and mulch

Meet us at the corner of 13th & Reed to pitch in, even if you can only stay for part of the time. Dress for the weather and wear shoes you don’t mind getting a little dirty.

Every extra pair of hands helps keep our park looking great for the whole community. 💚
