As most of you know EBC has adopted a section of the Prairie Path to keep clean and it is time for the first cleanup. Our section is a 1.1 mile section of the prairie path from Monterey Ave. west of Rt. 83 to the UP tracks by Pioneer Park.
We have scheduled the first cleanup for Saturday, April 6th with a rain date of Sunday, April 7th. This is the “big” cleanup and we need lots of hands to help.
Additional cleanups will be scheduled for June, August and October.
On the 6th we will meet at the Villa Park Depot at 9:00 am where there is plenty of parking. We will split up and one group will drive over to Pioneer Park and start from there while the other group will start from the Depot. We will have safety vests, gloves, trash and recycling bags.
If anyone would like to lead a ride after the cleanup please post it accordingly.
DuPage County requires a volunteer waiver and release which we will send out with a reminder email in early April. If you are able to print, complete and bring it with you, that will speed things along that day. If not, we will have extra forms with us, but please plan on coming a little earlier to complete the form. If you have any questions, please call or email me.
Thanks everyone and we hope to see you on Saturday, April 6th!
Mike & Hope
