Bde Maka Ska Trash Cleanup

Help clean up trash in and around the Lake, rain or shine! We’ll have treats and clean up gear like gloves, buckets, bags, rakes and trash pickers to borrow. You may want to wear tall boots to reach trash at the edge of the Lake. The first 4 participants are welcome to borrow free Wheels Fun Rentals (just bring an ID to leave with staff). Boats help us reach trash from the water. Thank you Wheels Fun Rentals!
