Community members are invited to meet with Pasadena police officers and park safety specialists Saturday to talk about issues affecting city parks and enjoy some barbecue.
Pasadena police Commander Darryl Qualls and Lieutenant Chris Russ will man the grill while park safety specialists meet with community members from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at La Pintoresca Park, 45 E. Washington Blvd., park safety specialist Maria Huerta said.
The goal of the “park watch” meeting is to familiarize residents with the park safety specialists and encourage them to take pride in city parks.
“It’s like a neighborhood watch; it’s got that concept,” Huerta said.
