Park Cleanup Kits

cleanup

Foster City boasts over 160 acres of beautiful parks and open space land including sports fields, sport courts, and the pedway.  Residents and visitors alike often remark how much they enjoy their picnics and community events but unfortunately, trash doesn’t always make its way to the proper place.

While our Parks and Recreation Department staff do an amazing job of maintaining our parks, it is up to the entire community to help keep Foster City beautiful!

Volunteer to pick up litter in your neighborhood or in one of Foster City’s 24 parks. Volunteers aged 15+ (any participant can use the kit but we do request that someone 15+ be the one who completes the form) can register their cleanup with us and check out a FREE Park Cleanup Kit. Kits should be returned to the Foster City Parks and Recreation Department within 1 week of it being checked out.  NEW- we now offer cleanup kits to support the City's Goose Management Plan!
