Community Clean-Up Walkthrough-Outreach.
The neighborhood wetlands-street cleanup will include a community walkthrough to outreach to property owners, community members-residents, and our supportive volunteer visitors. The plan is for one to three (1-3) hours of community stewardship on the weekends (Friday-Saturday-Sunday), on an as needed basis. The plan is to recruit-engage additional volunteers through community canvassing, targeting the property owners who live near and community members who frequent higher profile areas, including local businesses.
This is a community call-to-action for environmental impact awareness. Inquire about being a community 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) steward for your block-community-neighborhood.
