Aloha All, Yes, March 19 is on for clean up at Boys and Girls Club.
8am-Noon. Here is what 's needed: 1 Chainsaw, 3-4 weed-eaters, 3 handsaws, sickles, 4 rakes, 2 wheelbarrows. Bring own garden gloves.
We will be clearing green growth mostly along the back and along the side of the club house which includes some small palms and weeds as well as the small area in the front where the canon is located.
There is some green waste already there that needs to be hauled away along with what we chop and clean. So a dump truck will be super helpful. Chad plans on making chili and rice with hot dogs for lunch. Anita has water and drinks she'll provide in a cooler.
Thank you
