Event Details

Join Project Peace East Bay for our third 2011 Day of Peace, Saturday, August 27th from 9:00 AM until 12:00 PM!

We are pleased to be continuing our partnership with local public schools as well as working with the City of Oakland:

1) We will be working at Claremont Middle School in Oakland, our longtime community partner, helping the PTA with buildings and grounds improvements. Claremont recently suffered a major blow to their beloved gardens and needs all the help they can muster to begin work on a new and improved garden.

 2) We will also partner with the PTA at Berkeley's Leconte Elementary School, where we will be helping teachers prep their rooms for the coming school year.

3) Finally, we are partnering with the City of Oakland division of Parks and Recreation to help prep the grounds around the McElroy Fountain which celebrates its 100th birthday on September 17th.  Please, meet at the fountain which is located in Lakeside Park near the Lawn Bowling Club.  View Map

Snacks and drinks will be provided at both sites. Be sure to wear work clothes and comfortable shoes!

NOTE: There will be no childcare provided for this event. However, mobile, supervised children are welcome to participate at both sites. 

A Day of Peace is a coordinated effort by Project Peace East Bay to bring together local faith-based groups, non-profit organizations, and East Bay social service providers in order to promote the common good of our East Bay communities through quarterly volunteer service opportunities.  Project Peace's hope is that through these partnerships our local East Bay communities will become more environmentally, economically and socially sustainable.  A Day of Peace is an opportunity for people from very different backgrounds to come together simply to love and serve our shared community. Whether you are a friend, neighbor, colleague, someone who cares very deeply about the agency that is being served, or someone who just wants to make new friends, the Day of Peace is a great place for you to get connected into working towards more sustainable communities.
