Just wondering says
I’m hoping all the volunteers on the different cleanups are made extremely aware that they may encounter snakes.
Seeing is Believing says
If the Palmdale Mayor shows up then we will see one big ass snake. The portly Mayor looks to me like a stranger to actual labor of any kind. His job is taking credit for others work and has no shame.
Brian says
I was there and didn’t see any. I was expecting to see one as I had lifted many cardboard pieces of trash. I move the cardboard with a shovel first. Im no rookie.
East Lancaster says
We need a Clean Up Fern Street event pronto!!!!!!!!!
Alexis says
Don’t wait for anyone else; start cleaning up yourself. Why not today? It’s a beautiful spring day.
Tim Scott says
You might want to be careful about what you are encouraging…the only ways I can figure to “clean up Fern Street” all border on armed insurrection.
East Lancaster says
Uh, Alexis, I’m talking about Fern Street as in what goes on there, specifically when Rex and his hand picked council is up to no good.
I have no desire to clean the actual street.

When is the “Stamp Out Violence” event?
