Looking for a fun way to give back to our community? Join fellow WWIG members for a morning of volunteering at the Blair Street Gardens Park Clean-Up on Saturday, August 1, from 9:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m.
WWIG is gathering volunteers to help support this wonderful community garden. No gardening experience is required, just a willingness to lend a hand!

Parking passes will be available for the lot behind Wilson Green on E. Wilson Street, and we’ll gather for an optional lunch nearby afterward for anyone who would like to continue the conversation. Please RSVP by July 24 so we can organize our group and complete registration.
