Facilities Work Parties: Building & Land Crews
Building Work Parties and Land & Grounds Work Parties are held jointly on the third Saturday of each month. Our hope is to create more opportunities for handy folk to connect over shared interests — and to welcome anyone who is interested in teaching and learning new skills, all while maintaining our shared home. We will start at 9:00am in the Social Hall, and finishing around 11:00 (if not sooner!).
If you are joining the Land Crew’s party, please bring loppers, clippers, wheelbarrows, your visions and ideas. We’ll bring a gas powered pole saw and wheelbarrow.
If you are joining the Building Crew’s party, you’re welcome to bring your favorite tools, work gloves, knee pads, or anything else that will help you get the jobs done! We have a few basic hand tools available, but all building materials are provided.
Come join in the fun helping to beautify and settle into our Squirrel Creek home!
For questions about the Building, contact Alec at Building@uugrassvalley.org.
For questions about Land & Grounds, talk to Marlene or Cliff or email LandCrew@uugrassvalley.org.
