About this Spot

The Thousand Oaks campus includes a playground area, large fields, and an open section of Blackberry Creek.

Blackberry Creek is an important wildlife resource, and trash from the play areas surrounding it flow into this creek.

This area is large enough that sectioning it off will be necessary to be thorough.

Trash Note

Litter around parks is typically found in parking areas and nearby streets as well as the park itself. In parks, trash is typically found near picnic, and sitting areas, and along pathways.

In windy regions, trash will collect along fences and in bushes. In areas with hills or creeks, trash will collect downslope from roads and walkways.

The area around trash cans generally collects micro-trash. Clean, inviting trash cans get used more often, and maintaining trash cans is recommended.
