Embrace Shorecrest continues to clean up the grounds

On March 27, an enthusiastic group of gardeners, weeders, and general helpers converged on Shorecrest high school grounds.

Under the direction of chief organizer Diane Pickerel, the volunteers weeded, put down wood chips, planted, and generally cleaned up the planting beds in and around the school building.  

Diane says "If you missed this work party, you are in luck, because we are having another one on Saturday, April 17, from 10 am to 2 pm. Come join us."  

She added that volunteers do not have to have family members at Shorecrest and that all community members are welcome. 

A number of Shorecrest students participated in the event, getting practical gardening experience while earning some of their community service hours, required at Shorecrest for graduation.
