Rain or shine! The City of CF is providing gloves and bags for outdoor clean-up as part of EARTH WEEK. We are planning to clean-up around Big Woods Lake in Cedar Falls on Saturday, April 26th from 10am-12pm. Sign up via email sent on April 10th.
Plan to wear long pants, closed toe shoes, long sleeve shirt, and hat if preferred. We will have gloves available but bring your own if you have a specific preference. We will have a few areas to dig up some tires. If you have a shovel you can bring then we'd appreciate it!
Wendy will set up the focus areas for cleaning. We will meet at her house: 1410 Big Woods Road in Cedar Falls. Wendy also will host a low-key social afterwards and provide brats. BYOB.
