In April, cleanup volunteers filled over fifteen trash bags with trash and recycling, leaving our park looking fresh and clean. And it's time to do it again!
Join the Friends of Carondelet Park on Sunday, October 28 to spend a few fun-filled hours cleaning up our beautiful park. Brightside will provide litter grabbers, trash bags, and gloves, and the Friends of Carondelet Park will provide donuts and coffee. If you have your own gloves, though, please bring them in case we run out. If you can't make it to the entire cleanup, come when you can! We will have a representative at the Boathouse during the entire event who will make sure you have supplies to participate.
This event is rain or shine and family friendly! Scout troops and other volunteer groups are welcome to participate
