Lake Pleasant Clean-Up
After organizing a volunteering event at Lake Pleasant, employees gathered there on Monday morning and helped clean up the area to help protect our wildlife. Even though it was a bit windy and they had to wait for the sun to rise, it was a worthwhile event to help cleanup especially at a place so many families and friends love visiting. They were accompanied by a few burros who claimed the area as their own. A big thanks to Jose Garcia, Edgar Beltran, Lupe Castro, and Vanessa Martinez for volunteering!
