MANSFIELD — Mansfield Mayor Jodie Perry has announced, as part of the City of Mansfield’s Stream Outreach Program, Operation S.O.S. (Save Our Streams) for the year 2025.
Litter, debris, and illegal dumping are ongoing problems. Litter and debris can block water flow in our storm drains, causing flooding. This litter and debris can enter the storm drains, thereby entering our streams and affecting our water quality and aquatic life.
The city of Mansfield is inviting area residents, groups, and organizations to meet at North Lake Park on Saturday, June 28 at 9 a.m. The task is to clean up the stream in North Lake Park going south through Middle Park, ending at South Park.
Volunteers should wear durable work gloves, waterproof boots, and insect repellent. All volunteers who participate will be entered into a drawing for prizes as part of the 29th Anniversary Earth Stewardship celebration.
