In early April, community members gathered at Trenton & Auburn Playground for the City’s annual spring cleanup event. With support from the City’s investments, including opioid settlement funding, community members are working together to revitalize the space and make it a hub for future neighborhood activities.
Event highlights include local volunteers cleaning up the playground, Mayor Cherelle Parker’s visit, and ongoing efforts by the Friends of Trenton & Auburn to improve the space for all.
