Community Service Day - Volunteers and supplies needed!

Community Service Day is in two weeks, and we need your HELP to make this event a success.

 

Where  and When?   Walnut Acres on Saturday, October 14th from 8:30am-11:30am.

We are going to be planting, cleaning tables and playground equipment and other tasks. There is something for every age, interest and ability! Only available for a couple hours? Great! We welcome all help for any amount of time (we know many have soccer games). Please bring a water bottle, snack and work gloves. We would also love participants to bring trash bags, gardening tools and cleaning supplies if you have them. 

 

We want to continue cultivating the  big project that we started last year, transforming the Kindergarten area! We will plant flowers and more. We will leave some seed planting for kindergarteners to do during their class time the following week. We are very eager to continue to see results but we need  lot of hands. This project has become our "Kinder Garden Project" fostered by our wonderful Kindergarten teachers and children.

 

Do you want to speed things up? Please complete a waiver (One per family, but each adult needs to sign for themselves. Even if  in the same family.). You can  sign a waiver the day of the event as well.
