Community building work days scheduled for October. Set Saturday October 3rd and Saturday October 17th aside for work days. There are a number of clean up and freshen up jobs to do around and in the buildings. This is a great opportunity to get to know people better in Meeting and save the Meeting some money. The work we do not do as a community eventually is hired out. Come on by anytime between 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM even if you only have an hour, all help is very much appreciated.
We had a great turnout for work day yesterday and we got quite a few things done.
Included in the days tasks were:
a new mailbox post was set in concrete
slinkies have been installed to deter pigeons from perching on the Meeting House I beams. The two beams at the peak are next
the post function table got some TLC and a deep tissue massage
lots of kitchen area and utility closet clean up
lots of hedge trimming along the parking lot, weeding in the vegetable garden
The Meeting House windows got lots of needed cleaning on the sills inside and out, this became a bigger task when we discovered several mud dobber nests
We assembled a library portable book cart, watch for the portable library in the pre-function room soon
Pressure washing the pigeon presents from the side walk
The little house door latches again
Lots of raking of the pebbles in the parking lot to smooth out the ruts
I am sure I missed some things, let me know what else we did.
Not to worry if you could not make it yesterday, we will do it all again on the 17th of October.
