Battle Creek Clean Up was on April 16

In spite of having snow on the ground the day of the Battle Creek Regional Park Earth Day Clean Up, the 189 volunteers that braved the weather were able to collect close to 2 TONS of trash plus two yards of recycling from park land.

At the conclusion of the day, Sue Moyer, the event manager, announced that after eight years of coordinating the event, she has decided to step down. A replacement has not yet been identified. If you are interested in this volunteer position, please contact Angela Mens-Eastman with Ramsey County Parks and Recreation at 651.748.2500.

This is an important event for our area. Battle Creek Park is how most people in the rest of the City and County know us. Keeping it clean reflects well on us all. Please help keep this event going strong, following in Sue's footsteps. The whole district sends its thanks Sue's way for her dedication to this project over the last eight years.
