Santa Cruz River Day of Connection with Tucson Clean & Beautiful

March 15, 2025

Join us and our friends at Tucson Clean & Beautiful for a Santa Cruz Watershed Day of Connection. We will be assisting in a clean-up and celebration of Barrio Kroger Land and the Santa Cruz Heritage Project. In addition to a community clean-up, this event is designed to connect participants with the history, culture, and restoration efforts happening in Barrio Kroger Lane and along the Santa Cruz River.

  • Trash pickup and beautification of the neighborhood and river area
  • Wildlife observation to learn about the local ecosystem
  • Community storytelling and history sharing about Barrio Kroger Lane and the Santa Cruz Heritage Project
  • Watershed education to explore how we can all contribute to river health

Meet us at Verdugo Park, we’ll head to the clean-up site along the Santa Cruz River and Barrio Kroger Lane.

What to Bring

  • Closed-toed shoes
  • Protective clothing
  • Hat
  • Sunscreen
  • Refillable water bottle

This event is family-friendly, but children under 18 must attend with an adult. Let’s make this a day of action, learning, and celebration. We hope to see you there!
