The Burleith Spring Clean-up on Saturday, June 11, was a success with help from a small group of dedicated volunteers. We collected over 20 bags of litter and lots of bulk waste including a set a dining chairs and two rugs. We also recovered a stop sign for re-installation at 36th and S Streets.

Special thanks to Georgetown University for its enthusiastic staff (Paul, Keith, Theon, and Cory ... and future staff member 3-year-old Riley). DC Department of Public Works supplied bags, rakes, shovels, broom, and other tools through their neighborhood Helping Hands program.
