Neighborhood volunteer opportunities!

[Karen Story]

There are some odd jobs that need doing around the neighborhood. Any
help is really appreciated! (Do your teens need volunteer hours?)

One time tasks:

* Install new corkboard in two kiosks (I have the corkboard and can
help - I think it's a two person job)

* Fix the split rail fence at the south entrance to Cotton Hill Park
(loosen one post so the loose top rail can be reinserted)

Ongoing tasks - volunteer once or multiple times - your choice!

* Watering the new plants in Cotton Hill Park - this is a perfect job
for someone who is interested in learning more about native plants!
There is a year round stream in the park, and we have a cart for
easily rolling buckets of water from the spring to the plants. The
plants will die without our help.

* Watering 112th plants - several plants still need to be adopted so
they won't die when it gets hot this summer - each plant needs about
1/2 a gallon of water once a week

* Weedeating 112th landscaped area - if we weedeat once in a while,
we'll prevent the scotch broom and blackberry from growing back

* Mow or weedeat around the trees on the corner of 116th Ave NE and NE
87th

P.S. Vandals have removed many of the black caps from the reflector
posts along the 112th walkway. I've found some of them lying in the
road and bushes. Please keep your eyes open for black plastic ovals,
and if you find any, please put them back on the posts. (The vandals
also removed some of the caps from the chain link fence posts. I've
ordered new ones and will install them this week.)

Thank you so much for any help you can give!
