Spring and fall each year is a time when an invite goes out to members to volunteer a few hours to work on a project to help improve our facilities. Saturday, October 19 will be the primary day for organizing groups or individuals with Sunday, October 20 for any additional time, if necessary. The success of these endeavors depends entirely on individuals selecting something to work on with advanced notice to ensure materials are available.

The following are potential opportunities:

• Power washing and sealing slate landings in several different areas.

• Painting areas on the 195 side of the Education Wing.

• Re-arranging and relocating materials in the Groom’s Room and Deacon’s

Kitchen in the Meeting House.

• Clearing brush clippings and “junk” from various areas on our property.

• Painting the “fish” railings that are along the walkway to the lower lawn.

• Weeding in several of our gardens.

• Weeding and raking the Play Area.

• Washing windows outside the Parish Lounge and in the elevator hallway.

• Painting the bollards in the Meeting House parking lot.

• Spreading loam and seeding areas along the asphalt walkway.

If any of the above projects are of interest to you, please contact Duffy Brookes at (860)872-4477 or email thebrookes@aol.com to arrange a time or for further information.
