Norris Shores Annual Cleanup  -  2011
Every Saturday in March - 5,12,19,26

 

 

Shake the winter blahs, get a little exercise, meet your neighbors and do a good deed all at the same time! Participate in the Saturday clean ups in Norris Shores. As a result of the whims of Mother Nature & PVEC - we have much more to do this year.

 

FOCUS: General clean up of litter, debris, brush/tree remains at Marina and along subdivision roads.

 

Bring gloves and wear sturdy shoes. Any of the following will also be helpful: trailers that can be used to haul roadside debris; chainsaws; loppers for pruning vegetation; and pontoon boats for shoreline clean up. We may have chipper available at the Marina and hopefully to use throughout the subdivision.       

 

There is something every person can do to help regardless of your physical condition. Coffee and treats will be served.

 

Special Activities in addition to the ongoing NS Clean Up:

 

March 19: Keep Union County Beautiful is sponsoring a clean up along the lake shoreline. Residents of Norris Shores are encouraged to participate when they report to the NS Marina.

 

March 26: Potluck lunch for the community hosted by the Norris Shores social committee (contact Jan Bailey for details, 865-278-3916 or www.norrisshores.com - select Social Committee on the Contact Us page).

 

Firewise Day will be scheduled on a future date.

 

NSPOA Board will hold its regularly scheduled meeting at the Marina at 8:30am. All owners welcome.

We had a wonderful turn out for our first Saturday and got quite a lot accomplished. The wood chipper has gone mobile, which has made it easier for brush removal and we may be adding a second chipper to the venue. I’ll keep you posted.

But we still need your help!

 

There is much more to do. We will continue to chip along road sides and the work at the marina progresses. There is something for everyone to do. Thanks again to all who participated last Saturday and if you didn’t ... WHY NOT?

 

We had a great time and the feeling of accomplishment is awesome.

 

So come join the party.
