In celebration of “Creek to Bay Day”, we are planning a clean up of Little and Big Frog Park. This is our chance to be part of the International Coastal Cleanup Day—a truly global effort to make our planet’s waterways cleaner and healthier. When we clean up trash and debris, not only does our park look better, but it also keeps litter out of the Temescal creek, San Francisco Bay, and Pacific Ocean.
Date/Time:
September 21, 9am to 12pm
Location:
Frog Park, meet at the big oak tree by the Big Frog play structure to sign the waiver to participate.
Tasks include weeding, pruning, trash pickup, raking, and sweeping. Families and groups are welcome. Students needing service hours for school can receive a signed letter verifying their participation.
We ask that you bring your own water bottle and gardening gloves; we will have some gardening gloves on hand, so please bring disposable gloves if you’d like to borrow a pair. We will provide tools, but if you have your own, please feel free to bring them.
In addition, we will be applying a non-toxic waterproof sealant to our wooden play structures at Frog Park, so will require some volunteers (ages 13+) to help. The structures will be closed that day to allow for the application and drying of the sealant. FROG will supply latex gloves.
Coffee and snacks will be provided to volunteers.
If you are part of a large group interested in participating, please RSVP to: info@frogpark.org by September 15, so we can get a headcount.
Hope to see you there!
