Barton Springs Spring Cleaning - Saturday, February 28, 2015 (2-hour shifts)

Date: 

Sat, 02/28/2015 - 8:00am to 6:00pm

At the “Barton Springs Pool Spring Cleaning” event on Saturday, Feb. 28, 2015, volunteers can clean Barton Springs by helping pull weeds, brush and clean the stair rails and sidewalls, pot plants (it’s not what it sounds like), till gardens, spread mulch, excavate rocks, shovel sediment, and move the debris to the compost area by rolling wheelbarrows outside the pool area. All this hard work helps contribute to the cleaning, well-being, and beautification of Barton Springs Pool.
