Sky Valley / Firewise Clean up Day - Bob-S - 03-05-2023
NOTICE TO MEMBERS
Volunteers Needed
SKY VALLEY SEMI-ANNUAL FIREWISE CLEANUP DAY
SATURDAY, April 22, 2023
Meet at 8:30AM at the Maintenance Building
We will be doing cleanup of various green areas in Sky Valley to accumulate volunteer hours for another Grant. We also will be planting some small trees in the common areas that we will receive from the DNR reforestation program. Please bring a shovel if you want to help plant. We will work from 9AM until 12 noon.
We are planning to have a BBQ lunch at noon. Food contributions are welcome as usual. Volunteers are needed to help set up lunch. Please let either Rick Broadwater (301 387 7190) or Bob Sutton (301 387 4957) know if you would like to help with lunch.
This is a good chance to meet some neighbors and contribute to YOUR community. Over the years we have received over $80,000 from Firewise by putting in a little time ourselves every year. This is money we did not have to take from our budget. Volunteer hours for this effort also can count as community service days for school students who need to accumulate time.
Please put this on your calendar and plan on helping out. Bring gloves and wear old clothes – we will be dragging branches and brush to the trucks and trailers to take to the burn pile.
Any questions call Red at 301 387 7190 or Bob Sutton at 301 387 4957
Thanks – Sky Valley Board of Directors

Hey Bob,
did you all log enough hours to meet the requirements for the grant? If not, do hours spent doing timber cleanup on our properties count (if so, I have 8 hours you can add ;p).
