Lady Bird Lake Cleanup Makes For a Nice Break from SXSW


The Keep Austin Beautiful initiative is organizing a massive community effort to clean up Lady Bird Lake next Saturday (during SXSW Music), with sponsorship by Patagonia Austin (who sparked the idea), REI, Whole Earth Provisions, Whole Foods and St. Bernards Sport's.


The cleanup effort, running from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m., will be geared towards removing litter that's gradually built up along the trail. All gloves, bags, trash grabbers and assorted equipment will be provided. Anyone interested in participating can meet at the Mopac footbridge parking lot, or call Patagonia Austin (512-320-8383) and ask for Jim or Meghan. [Other Keep Austin Beautiful Events]
