This year we are meeting at Evo Portland, before walking MLK Blvd cleaning up trash and cigarette butts to ensure they do not reach and pollute our waterways. Safety vests and equipment provided (first come first served). Since we do have limited supplies, we suggest if you have your own gloves/buckets/pickers, to bring them.
Reminder - street parking is FREE in Portland because it is a national holiday.
