There will be a number of opportunities to clean-up the neighborhood in advance of the bike races next Saturday, September 12. Can we get 100 or more volunteers?

  • Libby Hill Park
    The UCI world championship races will bring big crowds to Libby Hill Park, which is a good thing, but all those people could damage the shade-giving trees by trampling the ground around their roots, which would not be good. YOU can help prevent that by mulching the trees to protect their roots. Meet at 29th Street and East Franklin, at the park. Street parking available. Work clothes and comfortable shoes recommended. Refreshments will be provided.

  • Chimborazo Park
    Volunteers will help beautify the entrance of the city parks along the UCI Bike Race route. Volunteers will be doing various garden activities like watering, planting, weeding, harvesting, and composting. Volunteers should prepare to potentially be in direct sun and hot conditions, which can make the work strenuous.Please dress for being outside: with sunscreen, bug spray, and bring your own water. Restrooms will be inside the park. The city will provide work gloves, but you are welcome to bring your own.

In addition, John Johnson says that:

Worked out that trash collected or large objects for CHA would be placed at strategic locations for the City to pick up on Monday morning with their trucks. Locations are Chimborazo Playground Park grass area on the West side of the park, the park house in Libby Hill Park and at the corner of Grace St and 23rd St.
