The Lower Kinnear Park Cleanup Day will be held on Saturday, September 19 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Volunteers are needed for weeding, mulching, clearing invasive plants (like those delicious blackberry bushes all around town!) and picking up trash.

Volunteers will meet at the Roy Street entrance at Lower Kinnear Park at 8:45 in the morning, rain or shine (though don’t feel guilty if you can’t make it quite so early, volunteers are invited to stop in throughout the day to lend a hand).

The Lower Kinnear Cleanup is sponsored by FOLKpark (Friends of Lower Kinnear Park) and the Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation.

Walk-ins are always welcome, but if you know you’re going to be attending, please RSVP to Phil at philprahst@hotmail.com by tomorrow, Wednesday, September 9 so the group can plan ahead.
