Volunteer to Make a difference
Join Takataka Club to Help Clean Up the Angeles National Forest
Meet Us Every Tuesday Morning @8am!
Tuesdays
8:00am – 9:00am
Our meeting spot is at the FIRST TURNOUT on the right when entering the Angeles Crest Highway via La Cañada.
Join the Movement!
Jambo! We are the Takataka Club, a group of eco-vigilantes going against the grain by being decent human beings. Since 2020, we’ve picked up over 5,000 bags of trash while working closely with CalTrans and the Forest Service.
We meet every Tuesday morning at 8:00am on the Angeles Crest Highway.
We would be SO happy if you’d join us in helping clean up the Angeles National Forest!

What Our Volunteers Are Saying
When Valerie asked me to help her pick up trash on the Angeles Crest Highway I jumped at the chance! I belong to many volunteer groups but nothing quite like this. I love coming out here every week to this beautiful place to do my part in keeping the highway clean. I have been with the group since day one in July 2020 and have no intention of stopping.
I love cleaning up because these are our mountains, and we want to share what we have with others. Keeping them clean helps others see what a treasure they are. It is incredibly satisfying to see many full bags waiting for Caltrans pickup on the side of the road after just one hour with other volunteers.
I never would have realized cleaning up trash could be so fun and therapeutic, but it really is! I look forward to every Tuesday for the opportunity to get out into the beautiful mountains and fresh air and help make our world a little more beautiful… it truly fills up my soul.
