Global Youth Service Day

On this Saturday, April 21st, CalSERVES, in collaboration with Sonoma County Regional Parks, will be hosting its annual Global Youth Service Day (GYSD), the largest collective service event in the world. This year, our AmeriCorps members will team up with community volunteers to lend a helping hand at Spring Lake Regional Park in Santa Rosa. We will be removing invasive plant species and cleaning up the trails in the park from 8AM-1PM. Afterwards, we will have a nutritious lunch and photo slideshow at Kawana Elementary School. 

For GYSD, our projects focus on improving our local environment, in celebration of Earth Day (which is Sunday, April 22nd this year); past projects have included planting hedgerows at Laguna de Santa Rosa and cleaning up Santa Rosa City Creeks. We enthusiastically look forward to "getting things done" and "making a difference" at Spring Lake, a beautiful place cherished many Santa Rosa residents! 

SEE YOU THERE!
