Camas Ridge School Work Parties

July 15, 2010
10:00 amto4:00 pm

Please join us for a garden work party this Thursday (July 15) from 10am until we complete our tasks. We will be doing regular garden maintenance, as well as planting beans and possibly sunflowers (we welcome donations of both). We also hope to plant a hedge (!) along 30th on Thursday.

If you cannot make it to the morning event, we could use your help with the outdoor classroom project. EWEB volunteers will be at Camas Ridge on Wednesday, July 14, and Thursday, July 15, evenings picking up the asphalt and concrete waste generated as part of the bike shelter and outdoor classroom construction. We need Camas Ridge volunteers to lend a hand with sweeping and shoveling the debris after the backhoe has picked up the big pieces. The work parties will start at 5:30 and run until 7 or 7:30. Please stop by if you can and bring gloves, push brooms and shovels, if you have them. Thanks!!
