The City of Lucas has so kindly sponsored TTPA for the Public Lands Trail Cleanup Day at Highland Park!
This event will celebrate the 30th anniversary of National Public Lands Day.
Since 1994, National Public Lands Day (NPLD) has mobilized volunteers on the fourth Saturday in September to celebrate and care for our nation’s public lands. NPLD is led by the National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF) in partnership with the National Park Service. Public lands consist of parks, monuments, forests, grasslands, and lakes including Lavon Lake, the Trinity Trail, trailheads, and our parks here in Lucas.
To register as a volunteer for the Public Lands Trail Cleanup, please go to the Lucas City web site URL below to register. Lunch will be provided after the event for registered attendees. All volunteers will be provided free cleanup supplies including safety vests, gloves, trash grabbers and trash bags.
