LERT volunteers are needed to remove 10 years of unkempt growth in a backyard. Two Lutheran school teachers have moved to the St Louis area from Kansas City and are requesting our help in clearing their new backyard.
We will be using a brush hog as well as other equipment to cut down approximately 50 seedlings that have overtaken the backyard, as well as many vines. We will also bring our dump trailer and will need to drag as much debris as possible to the dump trailer in the front yard for removal of the cut seedlings, etc.
All LERT volunteers are encouraged to wear yellow LERT shirts or vests. Also, everyone will need to have sturdy work boots, work gloves and hard hats. Any LERT chainsaw operators are required to wear appropriate PPE.
Water and Gatorade will be provided.
Parking in this subdivision will be a little tight, so carpooling is encouraged.
For the volunteers from the Wentzville area, we will be meeting at the Immanuel parking lot at 8:00 am to finish loading equipment and carpooling. All LERT volunteers in the St. Louis area, please get in touch with Kris Schuldt for the work site address, and you can meet us there at 9:00 am.
If you have any questions, please get in touch with Kris Schuldt at 314-971-5747 or pitchatent@centurytel.net.
