NPNA volunteers again turned their considerable energies to creek clearing and garden maintenance on Its My Park Day, November 5th. With time and careful attention, the plantings have taken on a natural look that brightens the greenbelt.
The creek clearing efforts remove much of the unsightly trash, with the added benefit that so much plastic will not travel further down the watershed, polluting the Trinity River, and beyond. A substantial quantity of brush and tree branches was removed from the Alta Vista Bridge, where it was impeding water flow.
Typical of NPNA events, it was an enjoyable morning for the participants, including some new faces, some “veterans” and a good number of young volunteers, already good neighbors and citizens. Thanks to the Social Committee for good coffee, donuts, and juice to fuel the efforts.
On behalf of all the creek volunteers, Merry Christmas, and Good Health in the New Year.
Vince Punaro, Creek Leader
