The BCDP headquarters is in need of a deep clean and a little TLC. August 26th’s event is phase 1 of a multi-phase project to deep clean, organize, update, and rejuvenate headquarters. During phase 1 we will tackle the basement. Tasks will include moving tables & chairs outside, power washing the tables & chairs, cleaning out the basement kitchenette, and deep cleaning the bathroom.

Due the size of the basement, we will limit the volunteer count to 20 people. If you have a truck, and are willing to take items to either the dump or Habitat for Humanity, please bring it!

Cleaning supplies and products will be provided, but please bring your own cleaning gloves. Please also bring spare towels for drying the tables & chairs. Be prepared to take these towels with you after the workday. We will provide light snacks (think granola bars) and water.

Who should attend: We are seeking at MAXIMUM 20 hardworking volunteers who want to help clean headquarters basement.

The 2023 Chamber Classic Golf Tournament will be held on Tuesday, August 29, at The Omni Grove Park Inn.
