Volunteers Needed to Prepare Park for Easter Egg Hunt

Volunteers are needed to help clean up Beaverdale Park for the annual Easter Egg Hunt to be held Saturday, April 7th.  The cleanup will take place Friday, April 6th at 1:30 in the afternoon.  Your assistance is needed to make sure the areas where the children will be hunting for eggs are clear of tree branches, dog waste, broken glass and other debris left from the winter.  The city will provide a truck to haul away whatever we find.  You may find it helpful to have gloves and bring plastic bags.  Rakes, brooms and snow scoops will be handy.
