December Community Creek Cleanup
We'll meet up in Fernandez Park on December 20 at 10 am. Wear boots or waders if you have them, as a lot of trash has gotten trapped in the creek itself. We'll do our best to clear it out. Here's hoping for a clear day, but if it is raining, check our social media to see if we're still on. Sprinkles do not cancel!
