WANT A WAY TO STAY CONNECTED TO OUR CLUB WHILE MAKING A CONTRIBUTION?
We don’t currently have the benefit of meetings where we could explain projects and pass around “sign-up” sheets; yet, the need for volunteers to help at our Rt.70 and Cultural Arts Center locations continues. Weeding is the main task we need help with right now and into September. As gardeners, some of us even enjoy weeding! To quote British gardener Christopher Lloyd, weeding can be a “kind of soothing monotony.” There are other garden tasks that come up as well. Just a few hours of your time can be a big help. As we all try to beat the heat...maybe you’d prefer to stop on your own and spend an hour or two in early morning or early evening? Perhaps you’d like to pick a small area to keep up on your own or with a friend? If an announced “pop-up” work day isn’t good for you, please consider reaching out to us. Perhaps we can meet you at another time or work out another way to accommodate you. To “sign-up”, ask questions, or make suggestions, please contact Mary LaPolla, malapolla@comcast.net 732-920-8231 or Carol Kilgannon, kilgannon_c@yahoo.com (underscore before “c”) 732-255-2176. You may also use the contact page of our Brick Garden Club website. With a list of willing volunteers, we’ll be able to reach out to you directly.
THANK YOU to Sue Fevola, Linda Helck, Ann Hopko and Sue MacDougall for their help at Rt.70. They all spent time in June and July weeding and cleaning up plants. Their efforts are very much appreciated.
Thanks also to Carol Kilgannon, Mary LaPolla and Sue MacDougall for volunteering in the CAC clean up. The CAC still needs more loving care. Three people are hardly enough to do the clean-up that is needed. Please help us out! Call Mary LaPolla at the contact above.
