Update: Volunteers picked up a mountain of trash at today’s cleanup.
Earlier: Thousands endured a steady drizzle to downpours and unseasonably cold conditions for a fireworks display Sunday night at Gasworks Park that observers said was worth the wait.
The day after the fireworks means a lot of picking up litter, debris and miscellaneous objects left behind in the chaos for shelter and beating the crowds to get home. Starbucks 5th of July Lake Union Cleanup wants to give you a chance to help re-beautify the lake and surrounding area.
Volunteers for the Gasworks Park are no longer needed but volunteers can still show up/register for work at the Center for Wooden Boats or Rogers Playfield in Eastlake TODAY from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Starbucks will provide coffee (naturally) and lunch.
