DONATION ITEMS NEEDED

DONATION ITEMS NEEDED

The Town is hosting 2 volunteer projects in May and June and we’re in need of items.

For the Riverside Cemetery Stone Cleaning and Restoration Day on Saturday, May 31^st,

8am – noon, we need:

·       Volunteers: More than 40 people joined on the last stone cleaning day. This is a great activity for kids and adults. In addition to stone cleaning this year, we’ll also be doing some stone straightening. We’re hoping for another great turnout this year!

·       Supplies: We have all the necessary liquids for stone cleaning. If you’re planning to come (or unable to come but would like to donate), we could use the following disposable items:

o  Plastic Gloves

o  Toothbrushes

o  Plastic Bristle Brushes (no metal bristles)

o  Empty and Clean Spray Bottles

o  Plastic Scrapers

o  Heavy Duty Contractor Size Garbage Bags

·       DONATED ITEMS CAN BE DROPPED OFF AT THE TOWN CLERK’S OFFICE

And if you’re coming and have tools, please consider bringing the following:

·       Level

·       Brick Hammer

·       2 or 3 lb Hand Maul

·       Pruning Sheers

·       Tamper

·       Pry Bar

·       Battery Operated Sawsall

·       Plumb Line

·       Small Wooden Stakes

·       4 x 4 Wood blocks in sizes from 6” to 2’ (used for tamping)

·       Wheelbarrow

For the mural painting that will take place during the Hello Summer event at Fox Field (Gilman Ball Field) on June 28^th, 10am – 2pm, we need:

·       Clean empty individual size yogurt (or similar) containers. We’re hoping to have at least 150 available for mural painters. These can be dropped off at the Town Clerk’s Office during regular business hours until June 26^th. 

·       Painters: We need 30+ volunteers to help paint a 9’ tall by 48’ long mural that will be permanently hung on the semi-trailer at the Transfer Station. Painting is fun and easy! Our mural artist will have the design drawn on 9 different Typar banners and each area will be color coded, so you know where to paint and what color to use. Be a part of a volunteer project where you’ll be able to see your work for years to come!
