Looking for a way to give back? We are partnering with Mecklenburg Parks and Recreation to help clean up Thompson Park on Thursday, November 5th. We need 20 volunteers so invite your friends and roll up your sleeves! We will be practicing social distancing. Make sure to wear your VBH gear!

What to bring/wear:

• Wear long pants and long sleeves, for protection from scratches and/or poison ivy.

• Wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes – REQUIRED, NO sandals or flip-flops. Wear OLDER shoes that you don’t mind getting dirty, wet or muddy.

• Wear heavy-duty work gloves – bring your own gloves for health and safety.

• Wear a hat and sunscreen for protection from sun exposure; and bring your own preferred mosquito/insect repellant.

• Bring and wear a face covering when in the vicinity of other people.

• Maintain physical distance of at least 6 feet (2 arm-lengths) from other people.

• Bring your own water in a large, refillable water bottle; to stay hydrated, avoid the need to refill, and to protect the environment from single-use plastic bottles.
