In summary, a group of community members came together to clean up local parks and stream banks, with a great turnout of around 35-45 people. The city also gave permission for them to plant Maple trees in honor of long-time and recently passed residents, which will create a beautiful area in the future. The conversation also recognizes the impact of simple actions and commends the group for their efforts.

Enjoy the day

We will join up today with a bunch of our community to clean up the parks and stream banks in our area.
Every litter bit helps. :)

Great turnout - ~35-45 of us stayed for a good afternoon.

It's truly amazing how much stuff gets blown around during the Winter.

The city gave us blessings to plant a bunch of Maple trees, in a semi-circle at one end of the park dedicated to the long time residents that are still with us and those that have recently passed.
Should be a nice area in twenty years. I hope I'll be around to see them mature. Simple things times a thousand can be wonderful things.
