Johnson Creek Park Clean-Up this Saturday!
Please join your friends from the Sellwood Playgroup Association at our annual clean-up of Johnson Creek Park on Saturday, May 16th from 9-11am.
This is a really important event to help clean up trash and support the new vegetation around the stream. This park has made such improvements in the last few years to become more family-friendly. It's cleaner and safer, thanks in part to all of you! Please come help us continue to improve this amazing community resource. There are also baby ducks there right now, so maybe you'll catch a peek!
Bring work gloves, clothes that can get dirty and some snacks for the kids. This is also a great opportunity for all the Sellwood Playgroups to come together and do some community service. Some snacks from Parks will also be provided. Please e-mail Gaylen at gaylen_beatty@yahoo.com if you have questions.
