HELP- Save the date
Reserve the Day! On Saturday, April 21st we will be having a work day in the Wickersham Garden. Our community partners, Branch & Vine and Neighbor's United, are interested in helping us get our garden beds back in use again. They have set aside the day to repair beds, fill with soil, and plant some early plants and seeds. We hope to have some of our GOTR girls take some ownership with the beds, but this ultimately is a Wickersham Family project.
So if you can, please reserve Saturday, April 21st on your calendar. Specific information will follow once we get details from our community partners.
GOTR
We could really use some guest coaches on Thursdays! Our volunteer coach from GOTR is only coaching on Tuesdays. Our junior coach can only make some Thursdays. This means some Thursdays we will be down two coaches. We could use your help any Thursday you are available! We promise you will have a lot of fun and get some exercise in too!
