Grover St Tunnel Cleanup

  • Grover St Pedestrian Tunnel Portland, OR (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Please wear gloves as we will paint over graffiti, pick up garbage and do groundskeeping such as clearing leaves from inside Tunnel and at exits/entrances, as well as removing tree limbs, if any, on sidewalks and/or adjacent roads. Lair Hill Beautification and SPNA supply all relevant tools and paining supplies. Extra cutting tools and push brooms and rakes are always appreciated. We expect volunteer participation from nearly Cedarwood  Waldorf School and a wide range of volunteers from Lair Hill and South Waterfront and perhaps Johns’ Landing. All are welcome! It is also possible that additional work on Native Plant Project just past west entrance/exit of Grover Tunnel may be necessary. If enough volunteers, we will extend clean up efforts north of Grover Pedestrian Tunnel and to Darlene Hooley Pedestrian Bridge

Grover St Tunnel Cleanup

This is a “we” program, not an “I” program. Without everyone's helping hands, no one or two individuals could succeed in clean ups. We have all worked together for almost three years!
