Helping Set Up Crippsmas Place!

Traditionally decorations and lights start going up the first weekend after Thanksgiving.

For this year, that gives us 5 weekend days to set up decorations:
  • Sat & Sun Nov 26 & 27, 2011
  • Sat & Sun Dec 3 & 4, 2011
  • Sat Dec 10, 2011
We welcome volunteers to help with decoration set-up! Local high school students can also earn community service hours.

Set-up consists of arranging and installing the unique plywood cut-out decorations on the lawns for those neighbors requesting help along Nicolet Avenue and the cul-de-sacs of Asquith Place, Cripps Place, Wellington Place, and Nicolet Court.

We will not have volunteers climb any ladders and working on rooftops; just ground-level work. Tasks involve carrying the wooden decorations, using a mallet to tap in the support stakes, and using a cordless screwdriver to attach the wooden decorations to the metal support stakes. 

Please have interested students and their families contact me so I can schedule them in. Call Kate on her cell phone 510-821-5579 or leave a message on the Contact Us page.

In Community, Charity, and Childhood Joy,
