PROJECT BLITZ
Operation Brightside Project Blitz has been scheduled for our neighborhood on Saturday April 30.
The motto for this year’s campaign is “A Block Captain for Every Block.” Last year’s campaign was very successful but we can make it even better.
Each block is asked to recruit full cooperation from 100 percent of the residents. Skinker-DeBaliviere is well on the way to being the best organized community in Region 6; this is our opportunity to prove it!
The block with the largest percentage of participants will win a free wine and cheese reception from the Skinker-DeBaliviere Community Council.
PROJECT FLOWER SHOWER
Flowers will be in full bloom throughout the city of St. Louis and Skinker-DeBaliviere. Operation Brightside “Project Flower Shower” will provide neighborhoods throughout the city with flowers that will be planted in the public areas (tree lawns, cul-de-sacs, parks, etc.).
Each block has received a flower order form and is being asked to help with our community beautification.
The flowers will be available the week prior to Operation Blitz so that each block will have flowers to plant on Saturday.
