We hope you enjoyed the 3rd annual Santa Clara concert last weekend. Now it’s time to learn about another fun event this year – the opening of the Community Park.
Join our meeting in person or online and listen to a presentation by Marina Wrensch, construction manager for the Santa Clara Community Park. She will give us an update on the timing of the park opening, features, and amenities of the park, and answer any questions you may have.
There will also be a presentation by Raevyn Thompson, the Environmental and Climate Justice organizer for Beyond Toxics. She will be sharing an overview of the organization, current projects, and legislative work, which include the Bethel Clean Energy Project, Coffin Butte Landfill, Community garden spaces, and policies passed in the 2025 legislative session.
