All hands on deck!  It's time to freshen up our outside spaces for the coming summer season...grab your garden gloves, rakes and shovels.  Help is needed to pull weeds, spread mulch and give the outside lawn some care and maintenance after the long winter.  We will begin at 4pm and end when the work is done - many hands make light work - please join us!
