Virtual Spring Clean-up at St. Paul’s

SPRING is here! And that means St Paul’s gardens and grounds need a little sprucing up. Here’s a list of the Spring Clean-up tasks to be accomplished and sign up slots below. Please sign up as one household per sign up slot. We very much appreciate the time and energy you are putting forward to make St. Paul’s grounds beautiful for the return of in-person services this Spring!

A few notes:

We highly recommend that you wear comfortable clothing and bring your own garden gloves.
To the extent you need church tools for the task (rakes, shovels, wheelbarrow, bags for leaves, etc.), please text Tony Brady (412) 605-2338 and let him know what you need and when, and he will work with the Church Sexton to have them available.
Leaf bags may be deposited in the dumpster at the bottom of the parking lot.
Please do not place any debris, cuttings, or leaves on St. Paul's or neighboring properties.
Tony will confirm to all volunteers when mulch is delivered. But you can get started on the cleanup right away and come back to do the mulching when it arrives.
Please send Tony a picture or two to his cell phone when your task is completed so you can receive credit!
Please complete all tasks by the first week of May.
Any problems or questions, just text or call Tony.

THANK YOU for helping to keep our grounds looking beautiful.
