Students from the University of Washington’s Department of Environmental Sciences will lead volunteer work parties to clear the slopes of the Saltwater Park of invasive plants on Saturday, April 2, and on April 23.
The April 2 event will double as the annual RBCA Park Clean-Up, at which volunteers can either join the weed pulling or pick up trash on the beach and around the parking lot.
April 23rd has been designated as the City of Shoreline’s Earth Day Celebration to encourage people to join in various environmental improvement efforts around town, including the work at Saltwater Park.
All of the work parties meet from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The Richmond Beach groups meet in the lower parking lot of the Saltwater Park. The city provides trash bags and gloves, and the RBCA will bring water on April 2. Children are welcome but need to be accompanied by an adult. Volunteer release forms must be signed on the days of the work parties.
