We hope you can join your Lowell friends as we clean up the Lowell grounds and plant
Spring flowers and plants! There will be a limited amount of plants and perennials to be
planted. Water and snacks will be provided. Please bring children, scout troops and
neighbors!
Don't forget your gardening gloves, shovels, rakes, brooms, wheel barrows, and any other
gardening tools you might have. We would also love donations of Spring flowers to fill our
many pots and beds.
See you at Lowell Beautification Day!!!!

They are hosting an Open House on Saturday, May 16th, from 9am to 1pm, featuring adventure walks, geocaching, scavenger hunts, and more. This area is an invaluable resource for Wheaton residents who seek to enhance their appreciation and involvement in the natural world. Check it out!
