Prospect Park Litter Mob Goes On

Friday, July 8th, 2011

Because the litter in the park never ends, neither has the effort by Marie Viljoen to help clean it up. In May, she organized the first Litter Mob to pick up trash in the Midwood section of Prospect Park, but they’ve done four more sweeps of the park since, and it will continue bi-weekly. There’s been so much litter (but other things too, like raspberries!) to talk about, Marie has started a Litter Mob blog, so be sure to visit to see the progress, and to find out how you can help.

The Litter Mob meets every second Tuesday at the corner of Center Drive and east Drive in the park. The next clean-up is July 19th, 9am.

      What a great idea! Props to the Litter Mob. 
      Can we get them to descend on the corner of McDonald and Beverley? It seems like people really abuse that area.

      A neighborhood litter mob is a great idea.  Andie, would you be interested in talking more about doing something?

      Jeff, I would be willing to talk (Andie, you also?) about neighborhood clean-up. It’s deplorable around here most of the time. What’s your e-mail address?
