From the WSB West Seattle Event Calendar, inbox, and archives:

(added) POP-UP CLEANUP: Join Erik 10 am-noon at Gatewood Elementary (4320 SW Myrtle):

This is a family-friendly, leisurely clean starting at Gatewood’s front entrance courtyard on SW Myrtle. From there we’ll head around the perimeter of the block, hit the playground and also send folks out into the surrounding neighborhood.

Vests, gloves , buckets, and pickup sticks will be provided and we’ll transfer all the trash into Seattle Public Utilities bags for pickup.

Have a kid who needs service hours? Send ’em over and we’ll set them up! Come for as little or as much as you’d like, invite your family and friends as we make this a safer environment for our students and teachers as they return to school next week :)

I’ll be walking & cleaning too so if I miss you at the start time I’ll leave the supplies in the courtyard.

I can be reached at 206-852-9552
