Hiding on the back of the teacher assignment letters was an announcement about the annual PPS Community Care Day. This is the day when people show up at Rieke to help tidy the grounds (pick up garbage, pull weeds, sweep, mulch, etc.) before school starts. The grounds need it, and per the PPS Web Site, the event is set for August 29, 9am to noon. Plan to bring your gloves, garbage bags, weed pullers, trimmers, etc. to school on that day. I'll be there, at least! Hopefully the area near the new portable will have been re-seeded with grass before that.
That said, it looks to me like the fabulous garden gnomes have been at work in the front of the school, because the new landscaping out there looks pretty good. Thank you!
And a personal thank you as well to the neighbor who, on occasion this summer and throughout the summer, has mowed the hill outside of Rieke along Vermont. Now that's a commitment!
