WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO...
CLEANUP EVENTS
This past year, Keep Hyde Park Beautiful has hosted or participated in lots of cleanup events, including our annual Halloween-themed Costume Cleanup, the Neponset River cleanup, Love Your Block, and multiple Flash Mob cleanups. (Flash Mob cleanups are quick, spontaneous events - no registration necessary.)

Weeding and PLANTING
Keep Hyde Park Beautiful planted daffodils around the municipal parking lot in Cleary Square. We also planted flowers at the Fairmount Ave. and Readville Firehouses for National Firefighter's Day, the EMS station, and the Readville Post Office. In June we planted flowers in the Hyde Park Main Streets planters located throughout the business district. Volunteers have also weeded neglected pocket parks and planting beds in public locations.

Walking Tours
Keep Hyde Park Beautiful started a series of free walking tours to build community and promote the beauty and natural resources that surround us. Over the summer we organized tours of Stony Brook Reservation and Sherrin Woods. This fall, we will turn our attention to Hyde Park's rich history, with two tours in the works for September and October.
