Members of the Tahoe Park Volunteer Corps (TPVC) are looking forward to their first beautification project event this Saturday, October 2nd near the KROY pathway. Over the past six weeks, members of the community have been meeting and planning with one another in preparation for this first event.
 

Emulating and expanding on the efforts of the Land Park Volunteer Corps, the TPVCs goal is to supplement City Services during the fiscally difficult time. In an age where municipalities are being told to do “more with less” and are seeing their budgets slashed, a few neighbors have taken it upon themselves to ensure the quality of their common areas does not fall into disrepair.
 

It is the hope of this new organization to find and recruit other like-minded individuals who are willing to donate a little bit of their free time towards these efforts. We are also hoping that this event will be a chance for neighbors to come out and meet one-another and to create a sense of community in our area.
 

Our first event will be focusing on the northern-most region of Tahoe Park, namely the newly-improved KROY pathway, and the “Border Fence” area of T Street which backs up to Highway 50. We are convinced that with just a little bit of elbow grease and determination, we can transforme this area from it’s current neglected state to a clean and attractive area that all our citizens can enjoy.
 

If you or anybody you know would like to join us this Saturday, October 3rd, we will be meeting at the corner of KROY and T Street at 8:30 am. We will be serving snacks and bevorages around 11:30 to all that helped.
