We will be there, what time?

 

YAY!

No "official" start time, however my family plans to be there by 5pm. That'll get us about 2 hours of work before the sun sets at 7:30pm.

Just as a reminder for those coming out to help:

 

  • Bring a tool to help you insert the flags into the dirt. The ground can be hard and sandy. I had good luck with a large screwdriver.
  • Work gloves to help prevent blisters/protect your hands
  • A canvas tote bag to stash your flags so you need to make fewer runs to resupply
  • Sunscreen
  • Plenty of water to hydrate! We live in Arizona, don'cha know!
  • A wide brim hat - there is minimal shade on the property

 

Thank you all for volunteering! It’s an amazing experience and a tremendous positive impact on those visiting the memorial on Monday.
