For the past two years, the Sustainability At Veritas Empowered (SAVE) group has headed out to Langton Lake Park, with buckets and grabbers in hand, to help clean up the park. Veritas is one of many groups that have chosen to adopt a Roseville park.
I enjoy doing the park cleanups because it’s a good way to get outside and talk to people from work,” says Veritas employee Amy Nguyen. “Plus, I get to give back to the community. I like walking in the park and it’s good to know that we’re helping to keep it clean.
It’s hard to find a place to fit more than 50 volunteers who want to make a difference, but City of Roseville Volunteer Coordinator Rachel Boggs is an expert. When the Keller Williams Roseville office closed down for the day for their annual “Red Day” of service, she put them to work at Muriel Sahlin Arboretum to plant, weed, and beautify the park.
