Outdoor Cleanup Work Party Walkabout

Anyone interested in helping to reclaim part of our church property for outdoor activities please join in an informal walkabout at 12:30 on Sunday, October 6. Meet in the Parish Hall. There is an Outdoor Cleanup Work Party scheduled for Tuesday, October 22, starting at 10:00 a.m. 

Many folks may not be aware that the church owns a small parcel of land on the northeast side of the building, toward the far end of the driveway, which was generously purchased and donated by the Benards years ago with the intention of possibly adding on to the church building at some point in the future. In the meantime, the area has become very overgrown and is desperately in need of a major cleanup. Members of the Building & Grounds Team, the Gardening Team, and our Minister and RE Director would like to clear it out and maintain the space, at least on a temporary basis, for a variety of outdoor church-related activities.

To learn more about this project, please join us in an informal walkabout at 12:30 after the worship service on October 6. We need strong backs and tools, for any length of time you can spare, to help us with this major cleanup scheduled for Tuesday, October 22, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm. With any luck we’ll have perfect weather, and the work will be done well before 5 – and in plenty of time for an outdoor RE Halloween party! If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact Patty Simon.
