Volunteer Opportunity in the Garden

Building a Garden to Beautify
Laurel & Woodlawn


We have met with Keep Indianapolis Beautiful and have plans in hand to work in our garden, the lot next door to Emmanuel Baptist Church at 920 Laurel Street, that has grown into a strange assortment of flowers/weeds. Could you please put out the word that our two dates to finish the project are Saturday, August 23 (the day we dig and lay the pavers) and Saturday, September 6 (the day we actually plant). Both Saturdays are from 9:00-12:00. We need 6-8 volunteers on the first date, and about 15 on the second date. Lunch will be provided on the second date only. We will have plenty of water on hand to keep everyone hydrated. KIB has drawn up a really nice plan that we know will bring beauty and, we hope, serenity to the entire neighborhood. That's our goal! Thanks for helping me get the word out.
