Advocacy

An important part of Friends of Herring Run Parks’ work is advocacy. We advocate for Herring Run Park and its stream valley as a valuable asset for the neighborhoods that surround the park, for Baltimore City, and for the ecosystem.

We advocate with City leaders for park safety, conservation and environmental health, and vibrant park amenities.

A valuable and simple thing we can all do is to report issues to the City! Speak up for your park by reporting issues to 311.

You can be an advocate for Herring Run Park!

Use 311 to report issues such as:
· broken or unsafe playground equipment
· illegal dumping
· overflowing trash
· street light issues
· sewage leaks or overflows

Ask your friends and neighbors to report the same issue as well. Many voices matters!!
