Pro Humanitate Days 2026 - Dallas - Turtle Creek Park Cleanup

10:00 A.M. - 12:00 P.M.

Join Dallas-Ft. Worth Deacs in keeping Turtle Creek Park beautiful! We'll meet at Arlington Hall at 10:00 a.m., then do a park cleanup and help with new bed plantings as needed. Parking is available in the circle drive in front of Arlington Hall or in the spaces along Lee Parkway. The conservancy supplies gloves, trash bags, and grabbers. Be sure to bring a water bottle and clothing/shoes that can get dirty. Afterwards, we will gather for lunch together at a place nearby!
