With the Fall season coming soon, neighborhood groups are thankfully recognizing the need to clean up the neighborhood.

SynerGeo will be hosting a work day on Saturday, Sept. 11th at 10am. They will be having about 18 adults. They will split into two teams and one will pick up trash in Oregon Hill, and the other in Holly Street playground. Please get in touch with Bonnie Hofmeyer for more information, at bonniehofmeyer at synergeo.org or 804 648 2287.

The Oregon Hill Neighborhood Association‘s Holly Street playground committee has a volunteer workday scheduled for the Holly Street Playground on Saturday, September 18th from 10am to 1pm. They are looking for volunteers to help clear brush, pick up trash and just make the playground look better.

If you are available to help please email Sara Sitkiewicz at sara.sitkiewicz at gmail.com your name and phone number!

Along with the need of volunteers they need equipment. If you have shovels, rakes, brooms, garden shears, or anything you feel could be helpful to their efforts and that you wouldn’t mind loaning for the day it would be greatly appreciated. All equipment will be marked and returned to the owner.
