Signs, Signs, Everywhere Signs...

Long time neighborhood denizen and Arleta Triangle supporter Scott Vala has been out in his workshop hand crafting the long-awaited archway sign for the project.

We are so excited, but we need your help installing this during out work party on April 21st. If you have power tools, a ladder, and/or good balance, drop us an email to let us know we can count on your support!

First Work Party of 2012: April 21st SOLV Clean-UP

For the fourth consecutive year, the Arleta Triangle Project will be partnering with SOLV for SOLVE IT, a day on which people from across the state come together to take care of our natural spaces. (Click here to register for this event.)

We've got a lot of things planned for this day:

• Eco-roof Planting: we need plants for the green roof on the "Communished." Learn more about which plants work well on roofs like ours via this Ecoroof Plant Report.
• Plaza Maintenance: we'll be wielding our new Hori Hori weeders to tackle the plaza, installing border plantings, and planting sedums alongside decoratively arranged flagstones in the pathways.
• Sign Installation: long-time ATP supporter Scott Vala has been busy crafting an archway sign for our site, so we'll hang it up!

Here's how you can help:

• BRING GARDENING TOOLS, BUCKETS, WHEELBARROWS
• BRING YOUR OWN PLATE, CUP, UTENSILS AND A DISH TO SHARE
• DONATE PLANTS FOR THE ECOROOF AND BORDER PLANTINGS
• BRING A FRIEND OR NEIGHBOR WHO HASN'T BEEN TO THE TRIANGLE BEFORE

(Please note, because of this event, there will be no Dig-n-Dish the last Saturday of April. We will resume our regular last Saturday D-n-Ds for the Village Building Convergence in May!)
