February's Clean-up

The Oak Park 2nd Saturday Clean-ups have started out strong in the New Year with over 80 volunteers during January’s clean-up of Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. We want to keep that momentum for the rest of the year and are excited about February’s clean-up of 8th Avenue between MLK, Jr. Blvd & Stockton Blvd. Clean-up time and location:

Date: February 10th, 2007
Time: 9:45am – 12pm
Start Location:
Oak Park Neighborhood Multi-Service Center
3415 Martin Luther King Blvd.
Sacramento CA, 95817


As always lunch will be provided and for your comfort and safety please wear closed-toed shoes. If you are an adult attending this event with students, we do ask that you act as a group leader during the event. This requires that you arrive at 9:30am for a brief information session. If you have any questions regarding this event please do not hesitate to email volunteer@sthope.org or call me at 649-7900. As always please remember to RSVP before Friday the 9th at 12 noon with the number of volunteers you expect to bring.

Hope to see you there!

Great Job - January 2007 Clean Up

The 2nd Saturday Clean Up is now 1 years old. Congratulations everybody!!
It was beautiful to see a mixture of students from McClatchy, Hiram Johnson, Christian Brothers and Sac High all working together. Those who participate in the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. parade will be able to see our community's beautiful architecture and people, and not be distracted by litter.

We're still on the rise. Hope to see everyone next month. The location is still to be determined. Please let us know your suggestions.
