Two Johnson Creek clean-up opportunities in August.
1.)
When - Saturday, August 15 10:00am - 1:00pm
Where - Johnson Creek at SE 92nd Ave & Flavel St.
Help us clean up Johnson Creek before the new MAX Green Line opening! Our focus will be on removing trash and debris from the area in and around the creek beginning at I-205 moving downstream to just past 92nd Ave. Invasive species will also be pulled from the streambanks to give the native vegetation more room to grow in. This site is not appropriate for young children as there are some steep slopes and busy roads. Please bring gloves if you have them, refillable water bottles, hats and sunglasses if desired, and wear sturdy closed-toed shoes and clothes that can get dirty (long pants and sleeved shirts preferred). Also, if you feel comfortable wading in the creek, bring at least knee-high boots and hip-or-chest waders if you have them. Contact Melanie McCandless for more information - melanie.mccandless@gmail.com
2.)
When – Saturday August 29th
Where – Overland Park Neighborhood – Meet at Mill Park (Corner of Overland & Linwood)
See attached flyer for more information.
