Letter: Pack in, pack out after Richmond park visits

Dear Editor, I cycle by the park regularly in the morning before the city crews arrive. The park is usually a garbage dump and not always after a special event.

Dear Editor,

I cycle by the park regularly in the morning before the city crews arrive.

The park is usually a garbage dump and not always after a special event.

Being a lifelong hiker and backpacker, I have always followed these simple rules: “Pack it in/Pack it out” and “Leave nothing but footprints and take nothing but photos.”

Come on, citizens of Richmond and also visitors, are these simple rules that hard to follow?
