McKinley Park Trash Dash this Sunday: Plan to come out on Sunday, September 29th for our monthly Trash Dash. Mother Nature has a nice, sunny day in store for us. This is a very family friendly event, and also a great opportunity for any local students to get community service credits.
We’ll have trash bags, litter getters, gloves and water available for you. Bring your can-do attitude, a smile, and a water bottle to fill up. Come out, meet some new friends and make our neighborhood shiny. Our group will be out there from 10 am until noon, meeting up by the duck pond. Wear a hat, slather on the sunscreen and make sure you stay hydrated!
Look for our signs at the park!
