Elko Clean Up Green Up

We will be cleaning up the area around Porter Roofing at 7:30-8:00AM on Saturday 23 April 2016 at 120 West Main St, Elko.  There is a large empty lot that needs some attention.  Please meet at 120 West Main St. for a short safety briefing and to receive your shirts, raffle tickets, and dump vouchers.  I allowed for a couple kids in our tally so if you have a younger person who wants to join us, I should have a shirt and lunch ticket.  Be prepared for some rain.  “They” say there is an 80% chance, but hopefully we will be out and done by the time the rain comes.  Bring gloves, rakes, and whatever you deem useful for weed and trash pick-up.
