“I can’t thank you enough for your efforts on Saturday, Oct. 24th during the Hidden Valley Park cleanup day on behalf of the Truckee Meadows Pickleball Club.

Everyone worked very hard cleaning up leaves, tumble mustard, horse manure, trash and whatever needed freshened up!

Ranger John was so impressed with our group of workers and commented that we completed 46 hours of work that one ranger would have done.

We collected 36 bags of leaves and 60 bags of weeds and debris.

Thanks for making a difference!!!“
