Volunteers are needed to pull weeds in Peace Park at 2101 S. Spaulding at corner of 21st street. Any afternoon between now and winter, we can use your help. We especially need your help this month as we have several events planned for September in the Peace Park.
We are planning a Peace Walk and Talk for Sunday, Sept. 11 at 2p.m. Can you help before then (Friday, Saturday)? We have events and activities all month.
We mostly schedule afternoons from noon-5p.m. Are you available between these hours? We can provide community service hours and service learning hours.
Contact us. We will respond ASAP. Plan on it! sincerely, director, Dianna C. Long
