March Event: Waimea Valley

Our next volunteer event will be at Waimea Valley (thanks to Janet for the idea!) We’re sending this out now so we can get a headcount of who will be attending. We’ve estimated 20 volunteers so feel free to invite others that may wish to come and let me know how many you are expecting.

• Date: Sunday, March 18th
• Time: 10-1

Location: Across from Waimea Bay

• For a safe and productive day, please prepare as follows:
  • Proper attire includes closed-toe shoes and clothes that can get dirty or wet (Note: Crocs are not acceptable footwear)
  • Light rain gear is suggested as the weather is unpredictable in Waimea Valley
  • Bring a water bottle and sun protection
  • Project will begin and end promptly at agreed upon times
  • Group responsible for its own safety at all times while in the Valley
  • Once the project is complete, group may enjoy Waimea Valley on its own time and under its own supervision
  • Groups with minors must have 1 responsible adult chaperone for every 5 minors

Activities may include simple maintenance such as:

• Working in one of the gardens

If anyone wants to carpool or needs a ride that would otherwise be unable to attend, let Rosie know.
