Next Cleanup Event: Oct 15, 2022!
Join Go Green Park Ridge for the final clean-up event of 2022! Since this effort started last year, over 900 volunteers have come out — church groups, the Park Ridge Wilderness Federation, Scouting groups, Chamber of Commerce members, businesses, special-interest groups, individuals and families — to help “repair the world" in our own backyard. These efforts are literally bringing the community together!
WHO: Everyone is invited!
WHAT: “Every Day is Earth Day!” Forest & Woodland Clean-up
WHEN: Saturday, October 15 from 1:00 – 3:00pm
WHERE: Parking Lot at Dam No 4 Woods (across from Maine South High School)
WHY: Because…
Volunteers will be concentrating on the large forest areas that border Dee Road and the Des Plaines Woods bike path and major roads. The goal is to remove as much litter as possible before the leaves fall and the snow arrives!
As John Muir, the United States of America's most famous and influential naturalist, said, “…and into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul."
