ST. HELENA, CA — The city of St. Helena invites volunteers to clean up Napa County’s streets and creeks Saturday during the final day of the Napa County Coastal Cleanup 2020.
The city will have a table set up from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Saturday in front of the Police Department at 1480 Main St., where community members can borrow supplies including garbage pickers, trash bags, and trash collecting receptacles.
The city asks that volunteers return the borrowed items by 12 p.m., and drop any trash-filled bags off at the designated area of Lyman Park, near the front picnic area nearest to the Police Department. The city's Public Works staff will then dispose of all trash bags.
