Help Clean Up Capitol Hill Oct 14th

From the Capitol Hill Yahoo Group
Jump Start Capitol Hill volunteer opportunity Oct. 14

As part of a strategy to strengthen the economic vitality of our
neighborhood, the forming Capitol Hill Chamber of Commerce and
the City of Seattle are cooperating on Jump Start Capitol Hill, a
Clean & Green Seattle event.

This is part of a huge effort by the Chamber and the City this fall
to upgrade Capitol Hill's appearance. In addition to this event,
we'll be repainting, working with Metro to clean-up the bus stations,
and replacing street signs. The City has already installed new trash
cans and repainted fire hydrants.

When: Saturday, October 14, from 9:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.
Where: Meet at 500 Broadway Ave E. (the site of the old Safeway)
What: We'll be cleaning the streets, scraping the poles, picking up
litter, and cleaning windows. It's a great way to participate
in your community.


Schedule:

9:00 - 9:30: Volunteer orientation and assignments
9:30 - 10:00: Message from the Mayor and the Chamber

10:00 - 1:00: Work! Our projects include: Litter pick-up, street
cleaning, facade and glass cleaning, pole scraping,
tree replacement and tree-pit clean-up, and targeted
graffiti paint out. We will assign tasks and
locations to volunteers as you arrive.

1:00 - 2:00: Refreshments and Music: Pagalicci and QFC will
provide pizza and beverages to acknowledge everyone's
hard work.
