We will be constructing a butterfly garden and planter park bench for the residents of Congress Park. Please come out and put your building skills to work. Come out at 8:30am for some coffee and light breakfast snacks before the work starts. Additionally, the residents of Congress Park will be holding a back to school backpack drive and will be taking donations of schools supplies for children ages 5-11. They are taking all items and have made no specific requests. See the supply list here (grades K-5): http://dcps.dc.gov/page/k-12-school-supply-list If you cannot make it out, but would like to donate school supplies, please email me at alundin@missioncontinues.org.
