Earth Day Cleanup

A big thank you to the volunteers who came out on a cold, rainy day to help clean up Great River's campus on April 22nd! All the pictures from 4/22 are linked here.

Volunteers did all of the projects below:

  • Made a new trail to connect the front of school and back of school for more play space at recess.

  • Moved a tree (!) to make way for a new 9 square area

  • Put fences around peach trees and native plant area to protect them

  • Installed a slide

  • Dispersed 20 yards of mulch

  • Cleaned up the garden area

  • Picked up trash

Thank you everyone for working so hard on a rainy, 40 degree day! The kids did amazing raking out the woodchips and installing the slide. We appreciate the volunteer help and appreciate caregivers’ donations to the school - materials to keep up our outdoor spaces are expensive and family donations go straight to purchasing items like woodchips and recess equipment.
