What a great way to start the weekend with a GoodGym Community Mission at Salvation Army in Camberwell.
Six GG runners slowly made out of work (home) and coming from all directions to assemble outside Salvation Army to be greeted by Janet.
Janet showed us around the plot, identifying two areas that needed to be spruced up: the front/side area and the back parking lot area. We had our gloves and limited tools, but we split into two teams and tackled away at the overgrown bushes, weeds and soil that had gathered in the wrong places.
It was great to see a mixture of "Old-timers" GG members and newbies. Big shout out to all of them for starting their weekend and using their Friday evening to help out:
- Steve, thanks for coming and tackling the front entrance. Hopefully, you had a great time at your friend's event.
- Emma, thank you for making this GG mission your second this year (but like 12th in 5 years) and hopefully, we can start getting you to come to more! 😊
- Nicky, great to see you and the bump... I'll see you on Monday, but have a great weekend!
- Karen, awesome work at the back ensuring the parking bays looked spotless and hope you enjoy your first hairdresser experience since lockdown over the weekend!
- Rosie, great work at the back too and thanks for organising the baby prams at the back. There's always gardening tasks popping up and be sure to check out the farm missions... If they haven't filled up by now.
