San Francisquito Creek Cleanup 5/17/08

Are you looking for a volunteer opportunity in your community that a) keeps our natural resources clean and healthy, b) preserves natural habitat for native species, c) ensures a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone in the watershed, and d) totally, totally rocks? Well then...
The San Francisquito Watershed Council needs YOU
Don’t forget to mark your calendar for for this year’s National Rivers Cleanup Day on Saturday, May 17, 2008:
WHAT? Come help us remove trash and debris from San Francisquito Creek
WHERE? Meet at the corner of Manhattan Ave. and Woodland Ave. in Palo Alto
WHEN? 9:00am – 12:00pm
WHY? San Francisquito Creek is home to a number of threatened species (including
Steelhead Trout) that depend on a high-quality creek habitat. Also, San Francisquito Creek is our shared community resource, and creek cleanups help keep our own environment clean and safe.
DETAILS: http://www.cleanacreek.org/ All ages and groups welcome, including children as long as they are accompanied by a parent/guardian or a waiver signed by a parent/guardian. Waivers available from the website below, but will also be available on the day of the event. http://cleanacreek.org/volunteerinformation.asp
