Bigelow welcomed on board

            At its December meeting, Ballona Creek Renaissance unanimously elected Michele Bigelow to its board of directors. The Culver City resident and former active member of the BCR Advisory Council has a history of volunteering and working for local environmental organizations, including the Ballona Wetlands Land Trust.

            Bigelow says she looks forward to assisting on a green space planning project, grant writing and ongoing volunteer native plant garden care and creek cleanup efforts.

            “In addition to her excellent qualifications” I really appreciate Michele’s shared interest in listening to and working with all stakeholders,” said BCR President Jim Lamm.

            BCR’s next Ballona Creek cleanup at Centinela Avenue will be held on Jan. 21 from 9 a.m. to noon. For more details and other news, visit ballonacreek.org.
