CLEAN-UP GUIDELINES

*****STUDENTS are eligible for COMMUNITY SERVICE HOURS*****

If you need a signature, please email Marian at

Please gather at the table to check-in, get gloves and t-shirt. After a very brief orientation, we will break into groups and head to our sites. If you are part of a group, identify yourself at Check-In, and let Esther know how many folks are with you. Esther, Marian, or Carrie can direct you to restrooms and help with any other needs. The site leads will have all equipment and extra supplies. If you need something, please call Esther (240 398-7604) or Marian (301 775-1191)so we can get it to you.
