Hope you can reserve Saturday, April 11, 8 am-1 pm, on your calendar for the 12th annual Blacks Run clean up day in honor of Earth Day. Meet at the green space beside the farmer’s market pavilion (between the DN-R and the Municipal Bldg). Volunteer and enjoy the games, music and exhibits all morning, and free lunch for clean-up volunteers. Read more about the event and other clean-waterway preservation work at http://www.cleanstream.org/ or call 540-437-1258.
Note to Hburg newcomers: Blacks Run is the often-neglected stream that runs through town. Last year’s clean-up day drew more than 500 volunteers.
Note to all: Our Social Justice Committee is interested in taking part in this and drumming up UU involvement, hopefully registering as a group. Look for more about that.
Want to wear an eye-catching, bright Kelly green T-shirt with UU logos–for the Blacks Run cleanup and/or any occasion?? If you looked in your closet this morning for something to wear on St. Patrick’s day, that shirt might have been what you found…or wished you had, if you never got one. The committee still has some to sell! (See Linda Royster.) And may the road rise to meetcha.
