Campus Work Day, Jan 7, 9-12

January 7th, 2023 by

Join us at UUCPA this Saturday, January 7, 9 am-noon (or whenever you can come) for the UUCPA Work Day – Help fix up / spruce up the campus. We will focus on indoor and sheltered tasks since it is forecast to be breezy and damp outdoors.  Light bulb ballast replacement in the Fireside room. No plans for gardening.  Maybe a good chance to re-assess the downspouts and gutters!  Tabulate the GHG appliances, and identify LED replacement of fluorescent tubes.

Hot Chocolate and snacks at end of the workday in the fireside room.  No potluck this month.Questions:  Contact Robert Neff for questions about the workday.
