Description

Reflection St. Pete, Stewards of Our Urban Lakes and Keep Pinellas Beautiful are excited to host quarterly cleanups at Mirror Lake! Mirror Lake was the very first water source for St. Pete and previously named Reservoir Lake. The lake's history is very special for the city and the surrounding historic landmarks are what they are because Mirror Lakes sits at the center of this beautiful neighborhood. We invite volunteers to participate in making a difference in our St. Pete community. We can make an impact and have fun at the same time while sharing an appreciation for the people in our community, the history, and local wildlife. Keeping Mirror Lake beautiful is a top priority, and we are excited to meet others who share this same passion for our city and love for living here. Volunteers will have the opportunity to assist with a street cleanup of the surrounding area, lake cleanup with canoes/kayaks, and invasive vegetation removal along the shoreline. We hope you can join us! *** WHERE TO MEET: Plan to meet at the main park entrance at the corner of 3rd Ave North and Mirror Lake Drive North (See map below). TIME: Cleanup will begin at 9:00 AM. WHAT TO WEAR: Volunteers should wear closed toe shoes, sun protection, and clothing you don't mind getting wet or dirty. WHAT TO EXPECT: Cleanup supplies including gloves, pickers, trash bags, safety vests, waders, etc. will be provided. A water refill station will be available, please bring a reusable water bottle. There are no restrooms available at this site. PARKING: Parking is limited. Carpooling is encouraged! *** **Please Note: No need to print a ticket to attend** If you have any questions, please contact Megan Jackson, Program Coordinator, at [email protected].
