Spring Cleanup

NCC Spring Cleanup on Saturday, April 6th from 9am - noon

Which expression do you like best: “Many hands make for light work,” or “Cleanliness is next to Godliness?” You have a chance to decide for yourself at the annual spring clean-up on Saturday, April 6th.  Clean up day is a little early this year as we have company coming in mid-April, as we’ll hear from Ronda in a few minutes.


Can you spare an hour or so on Saturday, April 6th or, perhaps, at another day and time you might be available?  We have a long, but very manageable, to-do list for those of all physical abilities (and preferences). If you enjoy being outside, weather permitting, we have outdoor tasks as well as indoor ones.

 

If you like washing windows (and, really, who does?), or at least are willing to spend an hour doing this chore, or tidying up the kitchen and pantry, doing reconnaissance looking for cobwebs, wiping down tables and chairs, cleaning up around the building and grounds, spreading mulch…..and more, then you are in just the right church!


If you would like to make a donation to offset the cost of hiring professionals to do the work, that’s also an option. You many donate online through NCC’s website and indicate in “Clean-up Day” in the “Other” section of “Donate Online.” Recent studies have shown the equivalent value for volunteer labor is just over $35 an hour.

 

Please let Pastor Meyer, Mike Chance or a member of the Board of Trustees know you would like to help, or just show up on April 6 (9am-12 noon). Please consider bringing your own outdoor tools or, if you’re washing windows, window cleaning equipment and any other cleaning materials you prefer to use.


Thank you in advance for pitching in!
