Winter is finally over…we think. Frigid temps, snow & ice, soaking rains, and those cold, gusty winds should all be behind us for now. And that means it’s time for spring cleaning!

Our landscapers have already been out to clean up leftover leaves and downed twigs/branches. Crews from EE will be laying down mulch throughout the Glen early this month. And now it’s our turn to spend two or three hours as a group to help the Glen look its spring best.

The Board and the Landscape Committee are once again teaming up for another Spring Clean Up Day on Saturday, May 4. Volunteers are needed to spend some time cleaning up our perimeter areas along the interior and exterior fence lines on King Street and Quaker Lane and helping to remove ivy from many of our common area trees, especially along the perimeter. Both adults and children are welcome to join. This is a great opportunity to meet your fellow neighbors, make new friends, and pitch in to help make the Glen’s landscape even more beautiful.

To join the group of volunteers, please email glenlandscaping@gmail.com. Then plan to meet at 9:00am on Saturday, May 4 at the entrance to the pool. We ask that you bring your own gardening gloves and/or tools, but we’ll provide trash bags, safety vests, and any additional tools necessary. A team of volunteers should be able to get the work done in time to enjoy snacks back at the maintenance facility.

It’s one day. Two or three hours total. Your community needs you. Please volunteer to help!
