Port Gardner Neighborhood Free Clean Up Dumpster Day!
Saturday May 30th 2015 from 10:00-‐ 1:00 pm-‐Longfellow School Parking Lot
This spring our neighborhood will host a free clean up day for Port Gardner residents. This clean up is being funded by our mini grant and a neighborhood block grant. We need ten volunteers to handle all the tasks . We will need greeters to sign people in and verify their addresses, direct traffic, set up a refreshment table, separate some items, help unload, pick up items from neighbors without transportation, set up and break down and just help in general. This will be a great way to get some of our alleys cleaned up! Call today or email to volunteer. [email protected] or 425.870.6699. A full list of acceptable items will be listed in the May newsletter. Metal recycles will also be accepted. Thank you for volunteering!
