Day Build: Wistand Cape Town

Yesterday Jody and I hosted our annual I Love A Clean San Diego #coastalcleanupday2023 site at Cooper Canyon, here in City Heights. In partnership with Linda Pennington and Project C.L.E.A.N. we continue to engage volunteers in acts of service while clearing litter, invasive plants, illegal dumping and graffiti from our streets and canyons, saving much of it from continuing down the watershed into our bay.

 

We are typically able to get upwards of 50 volunteers to our site, but the stars didn’t align. We did, however, have a dozen people on site who made swift work of our parkway and the top of Cooper Canyon. With a couple truck loads from Azalea Park Neighborhood Association, and San Diego Canyonlands, we filled our dumpster, donated by Veteran’s Dumpster Rental. Our Hula Hooping neighbor, Walter jumped in and made a big dent in clearing the brush from the path. We had leaders (and their kids), as well as students from Cardinals Interact, who made time on their own to show up.

 

I began the morning in the pre-dawn light waiting for our dumpster to arrive. As I photographed the “before” images I was dismayed to see more than 30 poop piles and hundreds of cigarette butts along the parkway. There is also a well-intentioned “cat lady” who leaves bowl after bowl of food for the feral cats. This all leads to people not caring for our community. I contacted her and made a better plan for her work. There was also a neighbor who walked his dogs, letting them do their business in the strip. I asked him the favor of carrying bags in the future and advised that I would do a clean-sweep of the space to have a fresh start. In return he not only came back to collect his own dogs’ mess, but I was surprised to discover he had cleared the entire parkway before I came back with our supplies. He drove by and left his info to be included in future events. #buildingcommunity

 

We did so much in just a few hours. We’re grateful for the resources provided and the platform for this worldwide cleanup event.

#OneRoss gathering in the Winter Garden on Wednesday February 1, 2017 to show your support for fellow Rossers who might be affected by the Trump executive order limiting access to the country from 7 countries signed last week. From the message that went to the school from the president of the Ross Student Government Association - "Let's show our friends and the world what it truly means to be a Rosser, celebrating our diversity and standing together in solidarity. I ask you join me this Wednesday and also welcome any comments or questions regarding the events."

We are typically able to get upwards of 50 volunteers to our site, but the stars didn’t align. We did, however, have a dozen people on site who made swift work of our parkway and the top of Cooper Canyon. With a couple truck loads from Azalea Park Neighborhood Association, and San Diego Canyonlands, we filled our dumpster, donated by Veteran’s Dumpster Rental. Our Hula Hooping neighbor, Walter jumped in and made a big dent in clearing the brush from the path. We had leaders (and their kids), as well as students from Cardinals Interact, who made time on their own to show up.

 

I began the morning in the pre-dawn light waiting for our dumpster to arrive. As I photographed the “before” images I was dismayed to see more than 30 poop piles and hundreds of cigarette butts along the parkway. There is also a well-intentioned “cat lady” who leaves bowl after bowl of food for the feral cats. This all leads to people not caring for our community. I contacted her and made a better plan for her work. There was also a neighbor who walked his dogs, letting them do their business in the strip. I asked him the favor of carrying bags in the future and advised that I would do a clean-sweep of the space to have a fresh start. In return he not only came back to collect his own dogs’ mess, but I was surprised to discover he had cleared the entire parkway before I came back with our supplies. He drove by and left his info to be included in future events. #buildingcommunity

 

We did so much in just a few hours. We’re grateful for the resources provided and the platform for this worldwide cleanup event.

Yesterday Jody and I hosted our annual I Love A Clean San Diego #coastalcleanupday2023 site at Cooper Canyon, here in City Heights. In partnership with Linda Pennington and Project C.L.E.A.N. we continue to engage volunteers in acts of service while clearing litter, invasive plants, illegal dumping and graffiti from our streets and canyons, saving much of it from continuing down the watershed into our bay.

Day Build: Wistand Cape Town

#OneRoss gathering in the Winter Garden on Wednesday February 1, 2017 to show your support for fellow Rossers who might be affected by the Trump executive order limiting access to the country from 7 countries signed last week. From the message that went to the school from the president of the Ross Student Government Association - "Let's show our friends and the world what it truly means to be a Rosser, celebrating our diversity and standing together in solidarity. I ask you join me this Wednesday and also welcome any comments or questions regarding the events."
