What: Individuals and groups of all ages come together to pick up litter that has recently become exposed due to the melting snow.
How: Participating is easy! Simply drop by the Como pavilion around 9 a.m. on April 22 to check in and pick up bags and gloves. Borrowed equipment should be returned by 11:30 a.m.
Where (Como Park): Look for our table near the Como Lake Pavilion to sign-in, pick-up some supplies, and debate which part of Como Park is your favorite with one of our helpful volunteer board members.

Pick Up & Party at Orchard Rec
The Como Community Council will be hosting the 2nd Annual Pick Up & Party event at Orchard Rec Center (875 W. Orchard Ave.). Whether you come with your neighbors or come to meet your neighbors, we would love to see you there!
• 2 p.m. Neighborhood Clean Up – We’ll kick off the event with a neighborhood clean up from Front to Como and Dale to the railroad tracks. Check in at the Rec Center for your supplies and the location to start your pick up.
• 3:30 p.m Community Pary – After the clean up, we’ll meet up back at the rec center for a grill out, kids crafts (including build-your-own bird houses), yard games, community organizations, and more.
Everyone is invited to this free event.
We’re also planning our annual Ice Cream Social at the Como Streetcar Station in July, and a Harvest Festival in the Tilden Park area in October. Get involved in planning the event in your sub-district, or ANY of the sub-districts, at our Neighborhood Relations Committee meetings.
