May 2, 3: Tree Planting Event at Hand in Hand Montessori
The children of the Hand in Hand Montessori, 211 N. McCarrons Blvd., Roseville, with adult supervision, have done buckthorn abatement in a section of the campus. At this event they will plant 100 native trees. Volunteers to help with planting are welcome. We do not need the volunteers to check in at the office if they meet me outside by the woods by the big green frog (just oustide the NW corner of the building.) Our HR person may have a little letter for each of the volunteers. I don’t think they have to sign anything and we will waive the ‘check in the office’ part because they are not in the building. We will dress for the weather, but can’t be out in lightning.
Dates and times:
May 2, Tuesday PM 1:00 – 3:00
May 3, Wednesday AM 9:00 – 11:40 (break at 9:40)
May 3, Wednesday PM 12:25 – 3:00 (no break)
Please send us an email if you are interested in volunteering for this event: contact@bigriverbigwoods.org
May 9 will be the back up time slot in case trees arrive late. 1:00 – 3:00 PM.
