No June cleanup this coming Sunday, 28 June. This was a make-up cleanup after a rain delay last week. We are unable to organize the cleanup on June 28th. Thanks for your understanding.
Please join our July cleanup on Sunday, 19 July, 10:30am. When you come out and volunteer at a monthly cleanup, it's a strong statemen to the Chicago Park District that the Point matters to you and that you are paying attention to the plans for design and construction at the Point being carried out by the Park District and its two local partners, the Chicago U.S. Army Corps and the City (CDOT). Coming to a cleanup is actually an act of resistence and resilience. See you at the Point!
