Our City   

 

Set for Saturday, May 12

 

Mark your calendar for this year's huge spring clean-up! More than

300 volunteers will be sprucing up Downtown Eau Claire! In coordination with Valleybrook Church, dozens of projects and tasks are accomplished during this one-day event.

 

Families, church groups, friends, co-workers and others donate their time in cleaning the Downtown area. They clean up riverbanks, parks, roads, trails, and also paint, sweep and plant flowers. It's a great day with an amazing outcome! We hope to see you on May 12th!

 

Do you have a project that you need help with?  If you're a non-profit in the Downtown area, or know of one that can use a few volunteers for a project or two inside or out, please let us know by emailing.  We'll be glad to help!

 

    

 

Students Can Prep for the ACT  

 

The L. E. Phillips Memorial Public Library in Eau Claire is offering high school students a three-hour workshop designed as preparation for the ACT test. The ACT Prep Workshop will be held Sunday, March 11, from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. in the Eau Claire Room on the library's lower level.  The workshop will be presented by Ruth Harris, M.S., director of the Northwest Reading Clinic Limited.  Specific ACT strategies presented include:  basic skills, analysis of directions, pacing, practice samples, when and what to "guess," and essay writing.

Participants may register beginning Monday, February 6, at the Youth Services desk, or call 715-839-5007
