SAVE THE DATE!
Park Clean-up Event (hosted by the SAC)! 
Sunday, September 26, 2021
11:45am – 1:30pm
Please join us for a Social Action Committee activity as we gather to pick up litter at the nearby park area where Machar holds its annual end-of-year picnics!  (Note: this is an update to what we earlier billed as “clean the creek” and “clean the street” before we settled on details.)

Kids are more than welcome and encouraged to attend!

We’ll meet at the site after Sunday School and Adult Ed.

Bags and gloves will be provided.

Students who need community service hours may bring forms from their schools for us to sign.

Where to meet: Parking lot across from picnic area #24, next to Rock Creek Tennis Center.

Directions from the school: Google Maps LINK (4-minute drive from the school parking lot – go left on Fort Stevens Dr.; left on 16^th St.; right on Morrow Dr.; left on Stage Rd. (at brown sign for Carter Barron Parking); just after the sign for picnic pavilion #24, take left into parking lot).

Note: the picnic pavilion is apparently reserved that day, so if there’s another group there, we won’t pick up trash under their feet!  But we can keep a respectful distance and clean up litter in the parking lot, grassy fields, playground, etc.

Consistent with other Machar outdoor events, masks are required and vaccination for anyone 12 or older who’s eligible to get vaccinated.

We hope to see you there!

RAIN DATE: Sunday, October 24 11:45am – 1:00pm
