On April 27th, 200 volunteers from Comcast worked with us as part of their annual Comcast Cares Day. After a morning kick-off rally, volunteers headed out to two sites. One group headed to the Gibbs Museum of Pioneer and Dakotah Life to landscape and garden, build a picket fence, complete general repairs on a wood shed and barn, and raise a tipi. The other group of volunteers spent the day at the Chelsea Heights Elementary School, helping to deconstruct the playground equipment and rip out the existing rubberized base.
Thank you to Comcast for partnering with us on these projects!
Check out our time-lapse video of the work volunteers completed at the Chelsea Heights Elementary School here.
