CVSan: Volunteers Needed For Earth Day

Volunteers are needed to participate at six community site projects during CVSan’s annual Earth Day on Saturday, April 25^th. In addition, eleven Castro Valley schools will join the effort in organizing projects at their campuses with staff, students, and families. Volunteers work together to beautify school campuses and clean up and enhance Castro Valley’s beautiful parks. Volunteers will pick up litter, plant native plants, spread mulch, pull weeds, and much more.

The Earth Day event has brought together between 400 to 700 community volunteers each year to help with projects all around Castro Valley. Thank you to this year’s event sponsors: Alameda Countywide Clean Water Program, Alameda County Industries (ACI), Alameda County Resource Conservation District, East Bay Regional Park District, ForestR.org, Friends of San Lorenzo Creek, Hayward Area Recreation and Park District, Pete’s Ace Hardware, and Alameda County Supervisor Nate Miley.

Since 1999, CVSan has been coordinating April Earth Day events for Castro Valley, from the early days of the Earth Day Festival and 5K Fun Run to the more recent Earth Day and Recycles Day events.
