Upcoming Events
Friends of Watson Park is on semi-hiatus and planning limited events for 2020. If you have a project or idea you would like to implement, we may be able to join you but at present we are not taking a leadership role.
On March 7 we will support Keep Coyote Creek Beautiful's cleanup event, starting at 9AM at the East end of the Basketball parking lot. People who want to help, but who don't want to go into the creek area may weed or pick up litter.
Email us at watsonparksj@gmail.com if you can bring new energy to Friends of Watson Park and we will invite you to a future meeting.
