For helping to keep Redwood Shores a beautiful and welcoming place to enjoy, the Redwood Shores Community Association thanks all of those who attended the 2010 Levee Clean-Up Day. There was a tremendous turnout for this worthwhile event, and together everybody worked hard to make a difference.

On Saturday, August 28, more than 100 residents of Redwood Shores (and a few from mainland Redwood City) turned out to clean up more than 10 cubic yards of trash from the public areas of Redwood Shores. The event was sponsored by the Redwood Shores Community Association.

Beginning at 8:30 A. M. with a bagel breakfast prepared by the San Mateo Credit Union, partially sponsored by Starbucks and featuring sweet rolls and bagels, the crews of volunteers spread out throughout the shores. Tools were provided by the City of Redwood City. By morning end, dozens of bags of trash had been collected. Trash was picked up by Recology. The San Mateo Credit Union sponsored a hot dog/hamburger lunch with all the trimmings. Our barbeque chef was Under Sheriff Carlos Bolanos. A good time was had by all.
