Community Cleanup - April 29, 2017 from 9-11 AM


Come join us for as long as you can to work on cleaning up 

The Wagner Greenspace!



What to bring:

  • Work Gloves (to protect your hands from sharp objects)
  • Shovels, rake or hoes (or all of them if you have them)
  • We could also use 1-2 wheelbarrows, if anyone is able to lend them for the day.
  • We will be providing some type of snack and water! We will also have heavy duty trash bags.

Other information:

  • Major work already done: One of our neighbor has already done a ton of work clearing vines and major debris (Thanks Grant!), but there are a bunch of little things where if we can have even 10 of us out there we could make a real difference picking them up. 
  • Increase safety of using the Greenspace As-Is: If you have walked on the property you may have noticed there is debris left over from demos, including broken glass and sharp metals. This is posing a safety issue for pets and kids. I know some dog feet have been bothered by the glass/metal.
  • Necessary pre-req to regrading the land: Additionally, we recently had a landscape architect (who also designed Emancipation Park) come out to look at the property to create a design. Out of that meeting we learned one of the fundamental things that needs to happen is the land needs to be regraded where there are ruts and holes. He said before re-grading the land the debris will have to be picked up. So we can get a jump start on that!
