Hey Dean Highlanders,
Tomorrow’s conservancy initiative project will be Mother’s Day themed. We’re going to start at 27th and McFerrin and hit the alleyway between McFerrin and Summer, and then make our way over to Wenz Park, then to the home of a single homeowning mother on Wenz Avenue who needs a bit of help clearing out her backyard, and finally to Mitchell Park.
There is a church (which used to be a grocery store, something I learned while doing the “Voices from Dean Highland” oral history project!) parking lot that you are welcome to park in. Here is a map:
The alleyway we’ll be cleaning is kinda cool, too. It ends right smack dab in the middle of the block. We’ll be taking it easy on the alleyway, just doing the half-block up through 27th, and then the two blocks from 27th down to 25th:
The DHNA board will mostly be out of town or working (or both!) this weekend, so I (Brandon Christensen) will need as much help as possible from any Dean Highlanders who can spare a couple of hours tomorrow morning and a pickup truck. The area we are serving for the conservancy initiative tomorrow is a high need, high impact one.
The fun starts at 10am! Shoot us an email or text Brandon (530-748-7566) if you have any questions or want to help out!
