Parks and Recreation - Southeast San Diego Community

Join us for a community volunteer event dedicated to enhancing Hawk Pocket Park while partnering with our neighbors at Chollas Creekside Park for a day of environmental stewardship and community celebration.

Date: Saturday, September 19, 2026
Location: Hawk Pocket Park (across from Chollas Creekside Park on Guymon Street)

Help make a difference by:

• Picking up litter throughout Hawk Pocket Park
• Beautifying park spaces and natural areas
• Supporting the health of local wildlife habitats
• Connecting with fellow community members who are passionate about preserving our parks

This collaborative event will coincide with Chollas Creekside Park's annual community cleanup and celebration, creating an exciting opportunity to work together to improve both parks. Volunteers will also have the opportunity to visit educational and community resource tables, including a San Diego Park Ranger information booth, with additional interpretive activities potentially available throughout the event.

Whether you're volunteering individually, with family, friends, or as part of a community group, your time and effort will help create cleaner, healthier, and more welcoming parks for everyone.

Volunteer service hours are available for students and community service participants.

We look forward to working alongside you to care for one of San Diego's valuable community parks!
