Kenmore seeks volunteers for park clean up event on September 22

Volunteers greatly enhance the City's ability to keep Kenmore's park system clean, beautiful and safe. Join the City and other volunteers in beautifying Rhododendron Park by picking up litter, raking debris, pulling weeds, and dispersing mulch on Saturday, September 22 from 9 am to noon. If there's an ample number of volunteers, additional clean up activities may be completed along the Burke-Gilman Trail.

The event will happen rain or shine, so dress appropriately. Individuals, families and community groups are encouraged to participate. Children 14 and under must be accompanied by an adult. No need to preregister it would be helpful if you RSVPed to the City of Kenmore 425-398-8900. If you can, bring gloves and basic gardening tools as the City will have limited quantities available. Water and light snacks will be provided.

The City is also seeking citizens to become park ambassadors and volunteer on an ongoing basis.

For more information, contact Leslie Harris 425-398-8900. Rhododendron Park is located at 6910 NE 170th Street, Kenmore.
