Reminder! Our Annual Spring Neighborhood Cleanup will be held on Saturday, May 6 from 9:00 - Noon. We will meet at Morgan Park and disburse from there. Areas of concentration will include Morgan Park, Shore Park, Indian Lake Beach at Clason Rd, as well as the Frostholm and Hapgood-Brooks memorials. We also plan to target trash accumulating in the area at the corner of Holden St. and Shore Dr. (Near the new alum dosing station.)

Rain Barrels are now available! You can take advantage of bulk order pricing by ordering your rain barrel though the City's Community Rain Barrel Program, coordinated by the Lakes and Ponds Program. The City has partnered with the Great American Rain Barrel Company - Pre-order yours today using the link below!

Rain Barrels are a great way to save water and protect our lakes from storm water contamination. Rain Barrels pre-ordered by May 14 can be picked up on May 25 between 5 and 7 p.m. at the Blackstone Visitors Center. Rain barrels must be pre-ordered and will not be available for purchase on site.
