The group is now scheduling a series of workdays throughout April. All workdays will be held outside at the site with social distancing and mask-wearing in place.
Four to six volunteers are needed for each of the sessions, which are slated for 8 a.m. to noon Saturdays. Did we mention bagels will be provided in the morning, and sandwiches will arrive at quitting time?
Here’s the work schedule:
Sat, March 27: Install the remaining fence posts for the rain garden
Sat, April 3: Install the rain garden fence planks
Sat, April 10: Staining of the property line fence and rain garden fence
Sat, April 17: TBD (finishing touches)
Can’t make it for those sessions but still want to lend a hand? The Etna Community Organization is also looking for folks to distribute information door-to-door to help advertise its Earth Day Challenge to those who do not use social media or email.
“If you are an avid neighborhood walk-taker, please reach out to get a stack of door knockers to hang on your neighbors’ doors to spread the word!” event organizers said. “The more hands we have, the cleaner our community becomes.”
Interested in helping out? Please reach out to megan@etnacommunity.org if you can volunteer for any of these tasks.
