East Bay Parks to Host Multicultural Event

The East Bay Regional Park District will host its Multicultural Volunteer Trail Work Day on July 12th at Garin Regional Park in Hayward. The park district has held fun trail maintenance events since 1996 to encourage the community to be good stewards of the trails. Projects include pruning invasive plants and installing trail structures such as retaining walls and steps. For the past three years, the park district has actively brought together the varied ethnic communities of the Bay Area. Volunteers ranging from 15 to 70 years of age from the Latino, South Asian, Korean, Chinese and African American communities worked together in celebration of diversity, hard work, public service, and good fun.
