City of Lakewood announcement.

Volunteering feels awesome. Roll up your sleeves for a morning of volunteering on Saturday, April 23. Volunteers will help pull weeds, paint fences, and beautify local parks during Lakewood’s annual Parks Appreciation Day.

Volunteers are asked to register to indicate at which park they wish to participate. Six park cleanup events will be happening in several Lakewood neighborhoods from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

• American Lake Park: 9222 Veterans Dr SW
• Fort Steilacoom Park: 8714 87th Ave SW

The “Grave Concerns“ group will visit Fort Steilacoom Park to maintain the headstones of deceased Western State Hospital patients buried between 1876 and 1953. Enjoy a touching story of their work here.
