Pocket Park Proposal

Notas del editor

  1. People are becoming engaged as citizens, not just consumers. Where civic engagement is high, streets are safer and public spaces are cleaner. ACE ( Action to conserve the environment) is a successful volunteer recruitment program that enlists volunteers to work at least 4 hours in one day or one weekend on a specific, assigned project. Volunteers may paint, mulch, weed, remove trash or perform other tasks, and are awarded certificates of appreciation for their service. As far as our communities youth are concerned, getting them involved in solving issues such as vandalism or the loss of open space helps them develop leadership skill and prepares them for a lifetime of active engagement in their communities.
