Volunteer Sign-Up for Spring Clean Up

Grounds-related Volunteer Opportunities

Here is a list of "grounds-related" work items that need to get done (more chores to be added later). There are certain chores that can be done before the "Spring Cleanup" sessions (designated as "Anytime" on the list). If you have the time, consider "volunteering early"! Some chores are too big for one person, so don't think we expect you to do it all by yourself. A few require extra safety precautions (like those designated as "Special"). Chores not completed by the end of April will be our "Spring Clean Up" chores. If you are willing to volunteer "early", please contact Terry Ulsh at (703) 451-0962 or let us know by providing the information requested below.
