June 6, clean-up for Jr Rose Parade

One last pass for collection of trash . . .

Meet at Fleur De Lis at 11am on Sunday, June 6. Bring gloves and trash bags.

Or, if you can’t make it on June 6, join me this weekend for a sweep of the 42nd Street Overpass.

See you around “town,”

Kim

Thank you, Clean-Up Volunteers

Upcoming Clean-Up . . . May 2

kimcottrell — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 03:15:15 +0000

Please note the change in date. Mother’s Day is the second Sunday, so the Clean-Up will be May 2nd.

May 2, 11am-1pm at Fleur De Lis.

Benefits: Greg Mistell feeds the crew after we’re done. Yum. Baskin-Robbins offers ice cream scoops and Aliviar Coffee pours a good house coffee. The focus in May will be on planting and getting ready for the Junior Rose Parade.

Volunteers on May 2: Stay tuned for more information on tasks and what to bring.

If you are unable to help out on May 2, it doesn’t take a special event to walk out and pick up some of the lovely cigarette butts that adorn our sidewalks. And, if you see a “hot spot” that’s really looking bad, please leave a comment here. We need all they eyes on Hollywood that we can get. Let’s bring some life and some customers to our area.

And now, to the clean-up . . .

April 11 a huge success!
