River Cleanup Effort

The Friends of Santee's River Park were at it again this morning (Friday, Aug. 5), cleaning trash and debris from the San Diego River at Santee’s Mast Park.

The Friends were assisted by 6 military volunteers from the Navy’s submarine base at Point Loma and two staff members from Naval Medical Center, San Diego.

We salute the Friends and our military volunteers in helping Santee remain beautiful.

Since 2008, the Friends have removed more than 35,000 pounds of trash and junk along the San Diego River in the city of Santee.
