Residents are invited to help clean-up the parks in Mount Vernon Triangle on Saturday, April 26 from 9:00am-12:00 noon. Mount Vernon Triangle Community Improvement District is sponsoring the clean-up beginning at the pocket parks at 5th and Massachusetts Avenue NW and working east to the large DC park at 2nd and Massachusetts Avenue, NW (I am working with Mayor Fenty and the Sonata board to clarify the status of this park, which has been (incorrectly?) referenced as a location for future homeless housing, and to set a meeting with the Department of Parks and Recreation to provide the park with a facelift) . Residents are asked to wear work clothes, bring their work gloves and strong backs to help rake the grass, pick up trash, shovel muck, and prune low-hanging branches. Rakes, brooms, pruners, and trash bags will be provided.
