Well, Spring has sprung, and it’s well past time to remove the images from this past winter from the Maplewood Neighborhood Association’s web page! If you’re anything like us and have been out and about with your digital camera, we’d love it if you’d share your best springtime photos of Maplewood! If you’re at all interested, send us a note at communications@maplewood.org with photos attached.

The Maplewood Neighborhood Association would like to thank you all for your support in beautifying our neighborhood during this year’s Clean Sweep. Festivities started at 8:30 at Edgerton Park where, after an introduction from speakers such as Mayor Richards and city councilman Dana Miller, we split up and tackled various projects all over the northwest city. And the effort has paid off: our pride in our city shows!
There are three more upcoming Clean Sweep sessions, starting May 4th in Cobbs Hill Park. Click here for more information!
Tomorrow is the big day- NW Clean Sweep 2013! Meet at Edgerton Rec Center at 8:30 AM if you want the free T-shirt, coffee and donuts; meet at your chosen project site at 9:15 if you want to sleep in a little more. Free lunch at Edgerton afterwards!
Your neighborhood needs you- please pitch in!
The final Maplewood Clean Sweep Project is the community garden at Dewey and Flower City Park. The Maplewood Gardening Team is running this team- this garden is their “crown jewel”! They work on it almost every week, but it still needs a good amount of work every spring!
NW Clean Sweep Project #5: The corner gardens at the ends of Alameda Street! Neighbors on the street built these to help beautify both Lake and Dewey. Team is led by the “mayor” of Alameda- Mary Lou Frank!
Maplewood Clean Sweep Project #4 is perfect for seniors, or just someone who wants a mellow walk along the gorge- picking up litter along the Genesee River Trail from the Rose Garden north to the pedestrian bridge.
