Clean up the river corridor during the City of Saint Paul’s 35th annual citywide spring cleanup. This year we are assisting Lower Phalen Creek Project with crews at Indian Mounds Regional Park and Wakáŋ Tipi / Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary in partnership with the City of Saint Paul.

Wakáŋ Tipi and Indian Mounds Regional Park are places of vital importance to the Dakota tribal nations and community members. This is your chance to help nurture and protect these spaces.

Please note: Nothing beyond trash should be removed from these areas, meaning vegetation, any type of rocks, or possible offerings should be left in place.  Behavior protocols: Limit the volume of voices, keep topics of conversation at a PG:13 or lower level, no alcohol or drug use. Be aware of moods such as anger, frustration, sadness, and step away from the area if you are experiencing such emotions.

The activity may involve walking on uneven ground, but participants will mostly be on pavement or mowed grass. This event is suitable for participants of all ages with appropriate supervision. All necessary equipment will be provided; just bring your enthusiasm!
