October 2, 2004, Volunteers Needed
Invent Tomorrow and the Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation Department need additional volunteers to assist with the riverview restoration scheduled for October 2, 2004 from 8 AM till 12 noon. Interested individuals should register with Invent Tomorrow by calling 260-407-2015 or by e-mailing inventtomorrow@aol.com.
This year volunteers will continue along the path west of Trader’s Point (Fourth Street) in their cleanup efforts. The purpose of the Riverview Restoration project is to raise awareness of the beauty and history of the rivers’ role in Fort Wayne's development and to help promote recreational activities along the Greenway.
Volunteers are requested to wear appropriate work clothes such as long sleeved shirts and long pants, work shoes and work gloves. In addition insect repellent and safety glasses are recommended. Volunteers are asked to bring their own hand tools if possible and will be required to sign damage and injury waivers. Young men and women 16 years and younger must be accompanied by a supervising adult and anyone under 18 years of age must have a consent form signed by a parent or legal guardian to participate. Everyone is required to check-in and sign a waiver the morning of the event.
Invent Tomorrow was established in 2000 to support and connect individuals and organizations to create solutions that improve the educational, economic and social well being of all citizens. The Rivers Committee of Invent Tomorrow is dedicated to promoting community awareness and pride in our rivers through activities that provide social and economic benefits.
