| CareFirst's "Team Blue" Replanting Planters |
On Thursday May 30th from 11 am to 2 pm, seven volunteers
from CareFirst's Team Blue participated in a gardening and beautification
project at City Springs Elementary/Middle School as a "soft launch"
for their partnership with the school.
The volunteers included Jade Mills, Jennifer Lew, Bharat
Prajapati, Yvette Washington, Robert Lewis, Bonnie Downing, and Carolyn
Dorsey. The day began with an address from Principal Rhonda Richetta.
Community Resource Coordinator Simone Garrison provided supported for the
project.
Volunteer activities included:
- Clearing out and planting existing planters in back parking lot
- Replanting and re-mulching 8 planters and one 4-tiered flower bed
- Picking up litter around the school grounds
- Mulching tree pits around the school perimeter (Caroline Street)
- Removing debris, turn soil, add mulch
We would like to thank CareFirst and BVU Maryland for making
this project possible.
