We would like some trash pickup participants to be “patients” in a mock emergency. If you are interested in participating in the emergency scenario, please contact Charyn McDonnell at flowguide@gmail.com or text her at 541-771-0808. Please identify yourself when texting or emailing as she will not respond to things she cannot identify.

Please register via Meetup for the trash cleanup itself, and contact Charyn if you wish to participate in the emergency scenario. You do not have to participate in the scenario, you are welcome to just pick up trash and enjoy a great day out in the monument.
