Volunteer activities will be similar to those we did last year.  We will need more volunteers because we have expanded from five locations to ten locations,  If you are interestded, there will be several types of activities of activities:  data collection, street painting, crosswalk painting, traffic safety and traffic bollard placement.

These activities will take place between the end of May and the end of June.  There will also be on-going bollard maintenance if you would like to be a traffic calming steward.

Last year we had a great turn-out for traffic calming and had a lot of fun working together on the street.  We can find something for you to do!
