(work in your own yard and win a $100 gift card)
.... Following "social distancing" recommendations, we are canceling Saturday's Old Canton Road Work Day , but encouraging Fondren neighbors all over our community to get out and work in their own yards on Saturday, or volunteer to work in a neighbor's yard.
..... "If there's an outdoor project you've been putting off, Saturday is the time to tackle it," said Old Canton Road Beautification Committee Chair Chuck Addington. "There is a chance of rain in now minimized so you should have enough sunshine to devote to making your corner of Fondren beautiful. Yes, we are discouraging social gatherings, but this is a very important time to focus on strengthening our community. Yard work helps with that!"
..... Send us photos using the PROJECT link below of your before and after projects and we will reward three neighbors with $100 gift cards to one of the above Fondren businesses of your choice.
