    Description

    Clean-up and weeding at Point Isabel!

    For the number of folks who visit, Point Isabel is remarkably clean and safe for both dogs and people due to the efforts of EBRPD Rangers and people like YOU!.

    Help keep it that way by joining us to pick up *stuff* (stray poops; trash) OR by lending a hand with weeding while enjoying the views and the fun at the world's largest off-leash dog park (aka "Disneyland for Dogs.)

    Come for 15 minutes or the full two hours -- every weed pulled or piece of *stuff* picked up helps.

    Bring your own gloves and tools if you have them, or borrow ours. And don't forget to ask about our Special Treats for very good dogs -and their owners!

    • Our focus during the summer months is on managing foxtails, noxious, invasive weeds that are dangerous to dogs. Join volunteers to pull foxtails and other weeds around high-traffic areas such as benches and picnic tables that rangers can't reach with power tools and mowers. Spring and summer intervention are particularly important to preventing foxtails from going to seed and spreading.

    Contact us at info@pido.org to connect with individual volunteers working on a daily basis, or to schedule a time for a group activity for your friends, school, church, or business.

    Clean-Ups are *usually* on the last Saturday of the month from 10 a.m. to Noon. We usually meet near the Rydin Road entrance between the restrooms and the foot bridge.

    CLEAN-UP Dates for 2025:

    Saturdays: July 26, September 27th, October 25th, November 29th

    • No Clean Up in August and December. Check in to confirm dates, times, and meeting place in the park.

    Rain/muddiness cancels.
