Earth Day Neighborhood Clean-ups

---

Celebrate Earth Day by beautifying our local neighborhoods! Several litter clean-ups are planned around San Rafael, and these events are great opportunities to connect with neighbors and enjoy the great outdoors while making our community cleaner and safer for all. Community-members may join an existing clean-up or organize one of their own. Locations include:

• Surf Sports 101, 9am – 12pm: Volunteers will receive a free Kayak or SUP rental. To RSVP, call 415-524-8492.
