On Saturday, April 26 volunteers will meet at Lucas Elementary School for the annual Neighborhood Energy Blitz. The morning volunteers will deliver the kits to all households on their route. The afternoon volunteers will pick up any kits left outside and return to the muster point to sort collected materials. It is likely the shifts will end early, depending on how many volunteers sign up. The afternoon shift always goes by quicker than the morning shift.
There is a volunteer training on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, at 5:30 p.m. The call will be recorded and sent out through email, for review if you cannot make it. The Zoom link will be sent via email.
The rain date for this event is scheduled for Saturday, May 10th. The shift times are the same.
