Palm Springs along with 23 chapters nationwide, took part in visible, meaningful environmental action this Saturday for Earth Day. Partnering with Tahquitz Creek Yacht Club, our volunteers used trash bags, pickers and gloves to safely remove trash from Tahquitz Creek Channel, a one-mile stretch of urban creek between Sunrise and South Palm Canyon in the center of Palm Springs. Some of what our volunteers retrieved from the creek bed include plastic coffee cups, shattered glass, plastic water bottles, cigarette butts, candy wrappers and bottle caps.
