About the event

Join Depave for a community depaving event at Peninsula Elementary School! Volunteers will be helping to pry up asphalt using pry bars and moving sections with hand carts and wheelbarrows.

These community events include instruction and training for best practices around safety and tool use. This Title 1 Portland Public School has extensive paved surface on the landscape around the school and we are excited to be returning to the site to remove more asphalt to create a living, playful, greenspace next to the kindergarten classrooms.
