Joy Avenue Work Party - Saturday, Oct. 27

[Peter Guttchen]

To NENA members and other interested folks,

 

Join with your neighbors for a cup of hot cocoa on Saturday, October 27 from 10 am to 1 pm for this year's last Joy Avenue Pathway work party.  We'll be preparing the site for the winter by laying down another layer of chips in some areas and removing blackberry plants and other invasives that we missed during our early work parties.  Next Spring, we'll be holding a trail dedication and a "no-sweat, shovel-free" party to celebrate the completion of this joyful addition to our great neighborhood. 

 

Wear sturdy shoes, dress for the weather, and please bring a pitchfork or shovel, work gloves, and a wheelbarrow (if you can) to the work party.   If you don't have tools or work gloves, we'll have some available for you to use. The project site is located in the 1600 block of Bethel Street about 1.5 blocks north of the SF Bakery.

 

This project, funded in part by a generous grant from the City of Olympia's neighborhood matching grant program, is making it safer and easier for students to walk and bike to Roosevelt and Reeves and for all of us to get active and get connected.  More information can be found on NENA's website at Joy Avenue Pathway. 

 

We forward to seeing you on Saturday, October 27.  

 

Best regards,

 

Peter Guttchen

NENA Vice President
