Home Preservation: Sidewalk Project

Do you have experience with pouring and finishing concrete on new building construction, sidewalks, parking lots, and driveways? Help us replace a Coleraine resident's sidewalk! Preservation projects like this make homes and yards safer, especially in the winter, and allow residents to safely live in their homes longer. This is a great project for volunteers with landscaping experience, and a great opportunity for inexperienced volunteers to learn. Volunteers should wear closed-toed shoes and clothes that can get dirty. Do you have landscaping experience and want to lead this project? Let us know by emailing info@uwlakes.org or calling 218-999-7570.
