City of Pacifica, Connect with Pacifica this Week, Kevin Woodhouse, City Manager, 6/28/19.

Afternoon fun in the Park

Careful sparkling evening

 July clean-ups that follow

July 4^th is around the corner, so a reminder about fun and safety. First, see the details below about the 45^th Annual 4^th of July Event at Frontierland Park, as well as the Rocket Run. I hope you can participate in these fun events held by the Parks, Beaches, and Recreation Department. Next, see the safety information about fireworks, and know that those possessing or discharging illegal fireworks are subject to a $1,000 fine. If you host a gathering on your property, and your guests are discharging illegal fireworks, YOU are subject to the $1,000 fine. Aside from being illegal, these fireworks are dangerous and were responsible for several fires in Pacifica last year. Finally, see the details below about Post July 4^th Clean-up Events with the Pacific Beach Coalition.

In the Spotlight:  Volunteers needed - post 4th of July Cleanup. We all enjoy celebrating the 4th of July, and there’s nothing more patriotic than saving our fish, sharks, turtles, whales, and snowy plovers by picking up this eventful day’s litter. Let’s all do our part to make this ‘land of the free… free of debris!’

Every July, the Pacific Beach Coalition organizes a team of Earth Heroes who take action by cleaning up our streets and beaches after the celebratory traditions of the 4^th of July. Fireworks litter and debris on the streets and from our yards can blow in the wind into San Pedro Creek, Milagra Creek, the Secret Waterfall, or our ocean.
Take part in this great cause. Find the dates and places we are going to be working here. Fill out your Online Waiver Form and join our team for this year’s Post 4th of July cleanups!
