SoPac Trail Clean Up
Saturday, December 9th, 2023, 8:30am at SoPac Trail
Our clean up team picks up litter on the SoPac Trail adjacent to our neighborhood on the second Saturday of each month, starting at 8:30am. Our clean up site begins under the Mockingbird Bridge continuing to the Trestle Bridge near White Rock Park. The clean up takes about an hour. 
 
Singles, couples and families are welcome. Kids love using the grabbers and take pride in picking up litter. Teens may earn community service hours and may flex their hours.  If you are interested in joining our team or need more information please email Chairperson Pat Watson, Neighbors@LakewoodTrails.net or call her at

Deliver Food to NE Police Department
Sunday, December 24th, 2023, 11am at NE DPD Police Station, 9915 E. Northwest Hwy
Lakewood Trails is providing a Christmas meal for the Dallas Police Department Northeast Substation, both 2nd and 3rd shifts.   For over 10 years, our LTNA neighbors have generously contributed either food or cash donations to help make these efforts a great success and have helped deliver the meals. Needless to say, our support has been much appreciated by our local police personnel who work during the holidays.  
 
If you would like to help deliver and set out the meal (kids are welcome!), we will meet at the front parking lot of the Northeast DPD substation, 9915 E. Northwest Hwy, at 11:00am on Christmas Eve, December 24. We are delivering catered food from Central Market for the bulk of the delivery, but you are welcome to contribute some baked goodies to add to the meals.    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!
