Coastal Clean Up Day

Coastal Clean Up Day is a state wide volunteer effort to clean up rivers, streams,creeks, lakes, and beaches. These clean up efforts have helped restore waterways as healthy habit for fish and wildlife while providing California residents clean parks and recreation areas.
We have signed up to volunteer to clean up Upper Penitencia Creek - Capitol Avenue to White Road. The meet up spot will be Girl Scout sign (green and white) by footbridge on Penitencia Creek Road near Kyle Street
