Fall 2017 It’s My Park Day!
Posted on October 13, 2017 by denman82
Help us make Brentwood Park look lovely for the Fall and ready for a new season of enjoyment! Registration is live at https://givepul.se/z947l
Projects include mulching trees, root collar clearing, sand volleyball court maintenance and planting bed maintenance. Breakfast tacos from Eldorado Cafe and coffee from Genuine Joe will be served to volunteers (bring your own coffee mug please).
Please bring your own work gloves and dress appropriately for the work: closed-toe shoes, long sleeves and pants recommended. Hats, sunscreen and your own water bottle are also strongly urged.
We are also asking volunteers to PLEASE bring tools because we can’t get enough tools from APF for all our volunteers.
Here are the tools we DESPERATELY need volunteers to bring:
wheelbarrows
pitchforks
square-blade shovels
stiff rakes
hand tools for root collar clearing, volleyball court and planting bed maintenance
loppers
PLEASE MARK YOUR TOOLS WITH YOUR NAME AND PHONE NUMBER so we can return them from you in the event you are separated from them.
Check-in will begin at approximately 8:30 a.m. at the Pavilion near Arroyo Seco.
PLEASE NOTE: Younger children are welcome to accompany their parents but projects are more suitable for kids 12 and older.
