The Residential Service, which has been gathering materials for the Tot Lot, has set the construction dates for Saturday and Sunday, April 17 and 18 and Satuday and Sunday, April 24 and 25. Street Revival, the Washington University group which has designed the lot, will be on hand to supervise and help with construction and we are asking the entire neighborhood to provide the necessary manpower.
The construction will be broken into specific projects such as building the fence, setting up a climbing apparatus, painting the structures, planting the trees and hedges, providing coffee and food for the workers, hauling construction materials to the site from the various places in which they’ve been stored over the winter, etc. There will be work for many, many bodies. SAVE SOME PART OF APRIL 17 and 18, and APRIL 24 and 25 FOR THE TOT LOT.
A flyer listing the specific projects, times and supervisors will be distributed during the week preceding the 17th of April door to door. Any questions or specific offers of help can be directed to Pat Kohn, 863-9259 or Chris Wright, 725-2753.
