Grassroots community redevelopment event planned June 5 in Clearlake

CLEARLAKE – On Saturday, June 5, local organizers are sponsoring a hands-on revitalization project at the corner of Lakeshore and Olympic in Clearlake.


Volunteers will gather at 8 a.m. at the vacant city-owned building across from the Clearlake Police Department to make minor repairs and do a major cosmetic facelift in order to transform this structure from an eyesore into an income-producing asset.

 

Paint, caulk, tape and other materials have all been donated by local businesses, and some tools will be available. Workers are asked to wear sturdy work clothes, shoes and gloves, and to bring their own tools (rakes, shovels, hammers, scrapers, paint brushes, etc.) if they have them.


Free cold water and a barbecue rib lunch will be offered to all participants.

 

The Lakeshore Drive business district has such great potential – let's start working together to make that potential a reality.

 

Event fliers are available at Girlfriends, 14510 Lakeshore, and other locations throughout Clearlake, and may be downloaded at www.lakelive.info/6.5.10flyer.pdf.
