YOU CAN HELP! Luna Park neighborhood cleanup next Saturday

One of West Seattle’s “gateway” areas is scheduled for some community TLC next weekend, and organizers – including community members, merchants, and Seattle reLeaf – hope you can help. Volunteers will gather in the lot between The Shack and Luna Park Café at 9 am for “weeding, cleaning up around the street trees, and spreading mulch. Come prepared wearing closed toe shoes and long pants. We’ll provide tools, gloves, and instruction.” They’ll be working until noon – lots of time to go to West Seattle Summer Fest after that! Interested? RSVP here.

P.S. This is intended as the first in a series of work parties to get ready for a potential Neighborhood Park and Street Fund grant to revitalize landscaping in the area north of the business district, under and near the bridge. The community member who wrote the grant application, Roxane Rusch, says the work will include the weedy area along SW Manning.

    Thanks for your service to all the volunteers undertaking this project I know the area well and it has been poorly cared for years running. Like to reach out here and say to the businesses residents and community members of the Luna Park area and its surroundings this area south and west is of course on a slope and example SW  Avalon Way follow thru with your own service by sweeping up litter that will eventually go into puget sound. As a cyclist who occasionally rides up Avalon the amount of litter along the curb line ,visible this time of year due to dry weather, is unfortunate do what you can to lessen storm water pollution. Take a walk along Avalon a check out that hidden two inch area along the curb line from the sidewalk, it will only increase of we don’t get out there and make changes. 

Sorry, comment time is over.
