THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS! Litter and weedy, overgrown planting strips along Renton Avenue South in the Skyway Business District were absolutely no match for our fourteen brave volunteers - not even in the chilly, pouring rain. Maybe it was the free Nevzat's Espresso, or maybe it was the healthy snacks and broad arsenal of tools. But most likely it was because WHAM volunteers are some of the very best around. At the end of the day, we packed THIRTY giant contractor bags full of weeds and litter. Don't miss the next one, subscribe here to get WHAM party alerts in your inbox: eepurl.com/BPzgP Help us do more - become a monthly donor: MyWestHill.org/Donate Thanks to KC CSA Grant Program, KC Community Work Program, 7-Eleven, Nevzat's Espresso, and everyone who helped make this possible.
