We simply ask participants and spectators to take out whatever trash they bring into the park. We moved trash receptacles away from the fields and posted signs at the various playing sites. This program was initiated at one site and has grown to all Oak Park Youth Baseball/Softball sites and all AYSO sites. We encourage all of our park patrons to follow the Carry In/Carry Out program. With our kids leading the way we can all be environmentally responsible. Please do your part to keep our parks clean.
