We hope to see you at our next Joy Avenue work party, this Saturday, March 23 from 10 am to 1 pm.
At this event, we'll be prepping the Pathway for our spring dedication and celebration slated for late May or early June. We'll be cleaning up the site, laying down more wood chips, and removing the large piles of woody and plant debris that have been composting since we started building the trail back in April, 2011
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 pathway 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. Just click on the Joy Avenue Pathway tab.
See you on Saturday!
Best regards,
Peter Guttchen
