Community Corner

Orinda in Action! - Earth Day 2012 - Community Wide Clean-up

Sign-up at website or as a walk-on in person on Saturday morning at the Orinda Community Center Plaza registration table. Registration starts 8:30am at Orinda Library Plaza with coffee & bagels.  A Free OIA T-shirt provided to the first 300 to sign-in.  A light lunch and music will be at the plaza is available to all volunteers.  Everyone welcome! 

Orinda In Action is a Community Service Day scheduled for the 3rd Saturday in April, on or near Earth Day.  The Community comes together to lend a hand to beautify and clean up our City.  We ask all community members to accept the challenge and volunteer for a few hours to improve our surroundings.  We welcome everyone, families with children of all ages, teens, college students, and grandparents, interested in coming out to work for a few hours to make Orinda beautiful. We will match volunteers with an appropriate project around town.  You may become a volunteer by sending an email to orindafoundation@gmail.com.

Projects:  Most projects have been identified, but if you see a need for clean-up or beautification in your neighborhood, on a street you regularly drive, at your local school or your local park?  Let us know about it.  We will have supplies and volunteers willing and able to help with all projects.  Project proposal forms are on the Projects tab and available when you email us at orindafoundation@gmail.com.  A perfect way to spend Earth Day in Orinda!
