Volunteers Needed for "Green" initiative

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED TO HELP 'GREEN' THE 'YELLOW & BLUE'; MULCH MADE FROM STORM TREE DEBRIS USED TO 'KEEP FRISCO BEAUTIFUL'

(August 18, 2009) In Frisco, 'yellow and blue' gets greener this Saturday, August 22. Volunteers are still needed to help the City of Frisco staff spread 225 tons of mulch around landscaping at IKEA, 7171 IKEA Drive.
The mulch is made from tree debris collected following a June storm.

Mulch will be placed around landscaping in the parking lots, as well as
the area underneath the 'Welcome to Frisco' sign. Volunteers, of all
ages, are welcome to help the Environmental Services and Parks divisions, beginning at 7:15 a.m. Volunteers will stage in the southwest parking lot.

Staff encourages volunteers to bring their own gloves, rakes and shovels;
however, staff will have gardening tools on site, as well. To volunteer,
