THANK YOU to the 50 people who showed up this morning to repair vandalism to our new park on the Upper Great Highway!
Awesome to see our community show up to clean the artwork and other things that were vandalized by park opponents in the first 24h after the Upper Great Highway was closed to cars (gift link to Chronicle article).
There were many people on both sides of Prop K, but I hope we can all agree that vandalism is a totally inappropriate way to express discontent with voters' support for that ballot measure and issue.
On the other hand, coming together in community to build and protect something--that's how we do it! Thank you, clean-up volunteers! <3 <3 <3
[Edit to add: If you want to volunteer to support the park as it takes shape and in the future, the park nonprofit has a sign up page at: https://oceanbeachpark.org/get-involved
