On Sunday, October 25, 2026, EcoQuest ran a community cleanup at Friendship Park in Cerritos, from 4:00 to 7:00 PM. It was the in-person half of our October campaign, and it was inspired by National Cleanup Day and its mission of keeping communities clean. Volunteers from a local Scout troop came out to help.
The format was simple on purpose. Everyone signed in at the picnic shelter, picked up a litter grabber, gloves, and a bag, and then spread out across the park and the block around it.
We finished back at the shelter with a group photo and pizza. Photos from the day are on our Events page, and the park is listed in our cleanup history there along with every other cleanup we have run since 2024.
Thank you to everyone who gave up a Sunday afternoon for it. If you would like to join the next one, our Events page lists what is coming up, and the Get Involved page explains how a school, troop, or family can take part.
