The City of Chattanooga Park Steward Program invites the public of all ages to Tyner Community Center, next to Tyner Academy, to save the community walking trail.
Park Stewards will lay down screenings, rock, blow off leaves and pick up the hundreds of plastic bottles thrown around the old existing trail. The public is asked to bring gloves and a sturdy rake, and Park Stewards will bring the rest.
The event starts at 10 a.m. and phase one should be done around noon. Families are welcome and litter grabbers and trash bags will be provided.
Officials said, "This will also serve as a great teaching tool ahead of America Recycle’s Day, Nov.15."
