OCEAN PARKWAY COMMUNITY LITTER CLEANUP SCHEDULED

 
Update: On Saturday morning, if it's raining at 8:00 or 8:30, the community cleanup will be rescheduled for Sunday, August 30th, from 9:00 a.m. to noon.
--------------------------------
 
Ocean Parkway Cleanup
Saturday, August 29th, 9:00 a.m. to noon

Neighborhood residents who don't like the unsightly, unhealthy litter on their streets will continue working together to remove it from the Ocean Parkway service road and pedestrian mall on the east side of Ocean Parkway later this month.

Meet up with the Ocean Parkway Cleanup Crew and The Kensington Stewards on the east side of Ocean Parkway (the side near E. 7th Street) at the intersection of Church Avenue. From there, everyone will work their way south to Avenue C.

The Sanitation Department and the Parks Department will loan some cleanup supplies (grabbers, brooms, etc.), but bring your own cleanup tools, if you have any. The Sanitation Department will pick up the filled trash bags shortly afterward.

This cleanup event will take place on Saturday, August 29th. Drop in to help for however long you can between 9:00 a.m. and noon.

In addition to this and the two previous organized group efforts, people have been picking up litter on their own or with a friend or two. All efforts are appreciated!

Wear a face mask to protect each other from COVID-19, and wear gloves to protect your hands from any litter you might handle.

Invite adults and children from the neighborhood to join in on this ongoing community project.

Ocean Parkway Cleanup and The Kensington Stewards are grassroots groups working toward the betterment of Kensington.

LITTER CLEANUP ON OCEAN PARKWAY: NEIGHBORS WORKING TOGETHER



Ocean Parkway Street Cleanup
Wednesday, July 15th, 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Ocean Parkway is a beloved and historic boulevard, used for living, strolling, jogging, sitting, playing chess and checkers, driving, and bicycling. The nation's first designated bicycle lane is on Ocean Parkway.

Ocean Parkway will be made even more beautiful and appealing tonight through community members working together to pick up litter.

Neighborhood residents will join together from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. to pick up and bag the litter on the east (odd-numbered) side of Ocean Parkway, between Church Avenue and Beverley Road. 

Meet on Wednesday, July 15th, at 7:00 p.m. at the Ocean Parkway-Church Avenue intersection.

Wear a mask to protect others and gloves to protect yourself. Bring trash bags and, if you have them, brooms, rakes, and a reacher/grabber that looks something like this.



This is the first cleanup event organized by the newly-formed Ocean Parkway Cleanup. Follow it on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/groups/324239235266854/ for updates and future events.
