Since 2009, Keep Dimond Clean (KDC) volunteers have picked up litter along the streets in the Dimond business district, including MacArthur Blvd from Canon Avenue to Lincoln Avenue; Fruitvale Avenue from Coloma Street to Harold Street; Bienati Way and parking lot; parts of Dimond Avenue, May Court, Champion Street, and Montana Street; and the two Park and Ride lots. Litter crews come out for one hour twice a week.
Join Us! Come join the crew any Wednesday or Saturday. Meet at the parking lot at Giant Burgers, 2055 MacArthur Blvd. (at Dimond Ave.) at 8:30am on Wednesdays and 9:00am on Saturdays. All supplies are provided and we’re done in an hour. And you’ll receive a coupon good for treats and coffee at La Farine Bakery! Have questions? Contact volunteer coordinator Fidel Valenzuela at fidelvale@yahoo.com or (510) 847-5757.
Now starting–the KDC Green Team! Tired of seeing weeds in tree wells, parking lots, and planting strips? We are, too! That’s why we’ve started a volunteer effort to weed and mulch the green spaces in the Dimond business district. Come join us for just an hour any Saturday. Meet up at 9:00am at the Giant Burgers lot and we’ll have tools (or you can bring your own) and a La Farine coupon for your service. Contact Fidel (info above) with any questions.
