Los Angeles Platoon

Event overview

We are partnering with LA CITY Council District 1, the Historic Highland Park Neighborhood Council, and the Arroyo Seco Neighborhood Council, to beautify the Veteran's Square Memorial in Highland Park (at the corner of York Blvd & Figueroa St) Location: 6218, York Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90042. We will be weeding, planting a few trees, picking up trash, sweeping, etc. This will be in celebration of the new fountain that is being built in the square. We will be providing light refreshments and all of the tools/materials needed. I am reaching out to invite you to attend this event! The Audubon Center’s mission is to inspire people to experience, understand and care for the local natural world. The nature-based education and community programs at Debs Park are designed to engage children and their families in the outdoor world, and to give them a personal stake in its protection by making environmental issues relevant to their lives. The Center is operated by Audubon California, a state field program of National Audubon Society, and is a vital part of Audubon’s national outreach initiative to engage Latino audiences. The Center, which is surrounded by predominately Latino neighborhoods, is a unique gathering place and dynamic focal point for outdoor recreation, environmental education and conservation action.
