Meeting place: Marion Harlow Grove, "The Oasis", watering hole for people and dogs, just inside the trail entrance off of Park Drive near the Water Tank. 9/19/09, 8:30A. Refreshments will be provided.
We will have a Clean and Green Crew, Park Rangers, CD 1 support and the Neighborhood Council, Citizens Committee to Save Elysian Park and EP Animal Alliance. We will be repainting faded fire hydrant ID numbers, chipped and shabby gates,trash cans and bag dispensers. Also collecting any and all trash and waste along the trails!
