The water levels are low at the Allen Park pond exposing a lot of trash that has been collecting there for years. Although we don’t like seeing the low water, we’re going to take advantage of the opportunity and clean out as much trash as we can from the exposed edges of the pond. This cleanup is going to be muddy, so don’t wear your nice shoes. We will meet at the Northwest edge of the pond. Check-in at the Mend table when you arrive to sign the waiver before beginning to collect trash.

We will have compostable trash bags available courtesy of Repurpose as well as a limited supply of pick sticks and biodegradable latex-free gloves. Please plan to bring your own water and sunscreen. Feel free to also bring your own pick stick and gloves if you would like.
