Event overview

In the Greater East End, Forest Hill Bridge is most used by children going to and from school. The bridge has some over growth causing the walkway to be hazardous. This leads walkers to seek an alternative route, which is often in the street with motor vehicles. Not so far from the bridge is an area closed off to traffic but can be used as an outdoor space for passer-byers. These spaces are sure to offer a work out as we dig, mulch, paint, plant and haul. Come join the fun. 1) Forest Hill: pressure wash and paint the underpass, mow the grass, cut back the brush 2) 72nd St at the dead end: mow grass, level surface, add gravel, build raised flower beds, plant trees 3) Capitol: dig holes, plant trees (stake them and mulch them) Registration and breakfast will begin at 8:30 am for an on time start. Lunch, refreshments, and TMC t-shirts will also be provided.
