The South Tabor Neighborhood Association, in partnership with SOLVE and Metro, invites you to pick up litter on Powell Blvd and other perimeter/interior streets on March 26th, 9AM – 12PM. This section of Powell borders our neighborhood, and we’re taking an active step in keeping it clean! We will work rain or shine. Sign up at http://solveoregon.org/get-involved/event-registration/26177. There will be coffee, tea, and pastries available in the morning, and pizza in the afternoon.
