Our September service project will be cleaning in Middle Park on Saturday, September 24th. We’ll meet at the Lagoon at 9 a.m., and we plan to work our way over to Splash Landing. (It is wise to bring gloves for this work.) Maria will bring garbage bags, and we can leave them near the entrance of Splash Landing to be picked up the following Monday. Please let Maria know if you can join us for this worthwhile park clean-up project!

We will be assisting at a Habitat for Humanity home. The work will all be indoors. There will be 2 shifts, 8:00-12:00 and 12:00-4:00. Spouses are welcome to help too. Children must be 16 years or older. If you want to help out but can’t work, you could provide lunch. Update: The two shifts have been filled! Great participation! The club is still discussing lunch options/helpers.
