Buckman cleanup Saturday 8/25!
Please come out to Buckman School this coming Saturday morning!
Portland Public Schools and SOLV are enlisting volunteers to do grounds work at 65 schools across the city as part of Community Care Day on Saturday, Aug. 25, from 9 a.m. to noon. We hope to get a large group out at Buckman.
The volunteers will weed, prune, mow and spread bark chips to prepare for students' return to school Sept. 5.
Following the cleanup, all volunteers are invited to Roseway Heights School, 7334 N.E. Siskiyou St., for a barbecue, music and the dedication of a new playground structure.
Last year, more than 1,800 people participated in Community Care Day, enhancing the grounds of dozens of schools. Such efforts are vital to Portland Public Schools: Because of tight budgets, the district employs the equivalent of only four full-time groundskeepers to maintain its 750 acres of property.
We hope to see you there!
