This year the DC Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) will host its first "DPR Beautification Day," Saturday, June 13, 2009, from 8 am to 12 noon.  This citywide effort will “spruce up” DPR facilities and parks in preparation for summer through the combined effort of DPR, community organizations, and residents.  A complete list of participating sites is provided below.

 

DPR invites all residents and community organizations to be part of this special day and support a DPR center or park by volunteering for the day.  DPR Beautification Day activities will consist of trash pick up, interior cleaning, and light landscaping.   Advance registration is not required; volunteer registration will take place on-site during DPR Beautification Day. 

For more information about DPR Beautification Day, please contact DPR's Office of Partnerships and Development at (202) 258-6021 or by email at DPRpartnerships@dc.gov.
