My staff recently hosted another pop-up in the 6th District, this time at the beautiful Rosa Parks Park. On arrival, they noticed there was some trash in the park, and after setting up the tent and table, and handing out informational pamphlets to residents and passersby, they went to work cleaning up the trash in the park. Stay tuned for before and after photos!
