Spring Clean Event April 20 in Pinehurst

logo-seattle-adopt-a-streetHelp clean up Pinehurst next Saturday, April 20th. We are enrolled in the Adopt-a-Street program, plus April is Spring Clean month.

When:  10 am, Saturday April 20, 2013 (rain or shine)

Where to meet: Northeast corner of Pinehurst Way and NE 115th St

We’ll pick up litter along Pinehurst Way, from Northgate Way to NE 125th St., and on NE 115th St from Pinehurst Way to 20th Ave NE.

The city provides grabbers and garbage bags, and I have a couple sets of brooms and dust pans for broken glass. Bring gloves. You will sign a volunteer form which provides insurance under the City’s Volunteer Insurance Program.

It’s a fun way to meet neighbors, get a bit of exercise, and improve the neighborhood. It’s even sort of fun seeing what kinds of weird and icky stuff is out there. It usually takes about 2 hours.

If you have questions, please contact nancy@pinehurstseattle.org.

    THANK YOU to Wendy, Phillip and Dan for coming out to clean up Pinehurst. We got several bags of litter. Sadly, Phillip and I picked up 4 or 5 liquor locks – what groceries are using to try to thwart the theft of alcohol now that it’s been privatized. I guess it’s not 100% working. We had no dead crows or squirrels this time. My most unusual pick-up was some kind of truss – it was white girdle-like fabric with stiff vertical stays every 5 inches or so. ??
