Graffiti Clean-Up a Success. Thanks!

We would like to sincerely thank the students, families, community members, staff members, and businesses that came out on a sunny Saturday and worked so hard to make our community a better place.  You made the difference and we couldn't have done it without you.

 

Neighborhood Graffiti Clean-Up!

 

When:  Saturday, May 30th, 10:00 AM
Where: NE and NW corners of Kale and Bayne.  Please park 1 block south, in the Hammond Elementary School parking lot.

Why: To give back to the community that supports us by painting the fences on Kale Street

Who: Hammond students, staff, parents, and YOU!

Parents, students, community members, businesses.....we need you!

The students at Hammond Elementary are dedicated to helping out in the community and they are thrilled at the opportunity to give back, by helping clean up the graffiti in our neighborhood. 

On Saturday, May 30th the entire community will be working together to paint the exterior fences along Kale Street, as well as clean up the general area.  We are working with the City of Salem Police Department, Marion County Sheriff, and the City of Salem Graffiti Abatement Program to make this a success.  We hope to have them join us on this memorable community event.

We want anyone and everyone in the community to be a part of this project, to send a positive message about our neighborhood. 

Thanks to our local business partners, including Kale Farms, Hayesville McDonalds, Roth's, and the Keizer Station Starbucks, we have enough paint to complete the project.  We are still looking for enough painting supplies, including: brushes, rollers, roller tins, plastic sheeting, clean buckets, and rags.  If you can help us in any way, please let us know.

 

If you would like to volunteer, donate supplies, or help in any way, please contact us.
