Park Clean up at Byerrum Park // JUN 12 @ 3:00 PM

We have been going as a larger group to clean up once a month at Byerrum Park on the corner of Chapman and Raymond and it has been a great opportunity to love and bless our city.  During the next few months of April and May we are unable to go as a large group because they are using the fields on Sundays for soccer.  If you as an individual or family are able to go on your own at your convenience and help to pick up trash at the park that would be wonderful.  If you do go, please send me an email at bryan@wilshireave.com to let me know you went so I can let the city know.
