Joint AOC7/ MacArthur Park Clean Up 07/18/15 8:30am - Noon

The Cleaning of Grundy Street Moved to Sunday 07/12/2015: 10am

The cleaning of Grundy will be moved to Sunday 07/12 at 10am, as I have just secured a job as a test proctor for the CBEST that Saturday.

Gaviota Cleaning PCH to Anaheim Finished

The cleaning of Gaviota took two days, this was mostly because of two locations. The majority of the street was cleaner than the first time I cleaned it. By the U-Haul Station and the Church Parking lot south of 14th it was much worse. The second picture filled up 1/2 of a 32 gallon trash bag.

Next week, we will be cleaning 15th heading East to Junipero. We';ll stop when I get tired as that will be the first time we've cleaned that side of the MacArthur Park Neighborhood.

Anybody who wants to join in, meet at 15th and Cherry just south of the doughnut shop.

Spring Cleaning Begins On Grundy

There was an unannounced street cleaning on Grundy from PCH to Anaheim this morning. Ester was also covered from Grundy to Orange. As per the recommendation of a previous neighborhood clean up volunteer, before and after pictures were taken, just so that it's clear this is making a difference.

Tomorrow, 04/04/2015 at 10am, there is an announced cleaning of Rose Street from Anaheim to PCH. Meet at Anaheim and Rose if you want to participate in building a nicer neighborhood. All cleaning supplies including gloves will be provided. Since I am off for Spring Break this week there will probably be a few additional unannounced neighborhood cleanups. I won't post about the unannounced cleanings again until next Saturday.

Check for announced Saturday upcoming neighborhood clean ups here.

To the right, is the amount of trash removed from Grundy and Ester. That's about 64 gallons, or the amount that was taken from 17th street last week.

There will also be a big clean up on 14th street in two weeks, 14th street is arguably the street that needs this the most. Hopefully, there will be a few volunteers, or it may take me all day.
