Our first work day is this Saturday! The gates open at 8 a.m., and we’ll have coffee and donuts first thing in the morning. We’ve got tasks for all ages and abilities. So far, the weather looks perfect – sunny and a high in the mid-50s.
The items below are suggestions from Building & Grounds. If you have another project in mind or can offer a unique skill to the club, please let us know!
Please fill out the form below if you plan to attend so we can get a rough idea of the number of people attending.
Yard Work
We have limited yard tools and work gloves; please bring your own if possible. We will have yard waste bags available for use.
- Pick up sticks and rake the grass where needed (from the street to the back of the lot).
- Remove overgrowth from the fence line.
- Clean up front yard landscape beds (primarily those by the circle drive).
- Clean up the edge of the volleyball court (pull grass overgrowth).
Fairway does not receive yard waste pickup services from the city. We greatly appreciate anyone who can take home a few yard waste bags to place at their curb.
