Working Weekend

This weekend the Saltonstall School PTO is picking up their rakes and shovels and participating in the city wide Clean Sweep Program and a MIni-Play Ground makeover.

Saturday starting at 8:30am, we will focus our attention grooming the school grounds and surrounding area. The plan is to mow, mulch and plant the landscape in both the front and back. Volunteers and yard tools are welcomed for this mornings worth of work.

Sunday starting at 1pm, adult volunteers are needed to help with the playground mini makeover. We will focus efforts to remark, repaint and redefine the USA map, 4 square, hopscotch and peace path. Additionally we will add several other cooperative games to the ashpalt and concrete.

Hope to see you there
