Energy-upgrade work party at Shiloh Church in Medford

The Home Energy Efficiency Team (HEET) is doing weatherization barn-raising on Saturday, Nov 19th at 9am at the Shiloh Baptist Church.

You may recall that HEET helped Grace Church do our own weatherization barnraising that was amazingly successful last year.  I encourage everyone that can, regardless of skill level to join in and lend a hand.  You'll definitely meet some great people and if you're not careful, you might learn something too.

Details:
Saturday, November 19, 2011
9am to 1pm
Shiloh Baptist Church in West Medford
1 Holton & Bower
West Medford, MA 02155

Please sign up so they know how many to expect.  You can choose to be a normal volunteer, a team leader in training or if you really know what you are doing a team leader.  They can use all skill levels.


Sign Up for Energy-Upgrade work party at Shiloh Baptist Church

Here is some snippets from the sign up form about the event:
  • Shiloh Baptist Church, a low income, primarily black church needs some help reducing its energy bill. We will install efficient light bulbs, low-flow water measures, reduce drafts and build interior storm windows to reduce those cold winter drafts. 
  • Learn how to reduce your own energy bill, while helping a church reduce its bills so it can continue to deliver great community services such as its food pantry, computer lab and community space.
Please invite your friends and neighbors too, but please sign up in advance.

Peace,
Jon

Grace Church is involved in the organization of the event, but I felt it was an event of interest to our community and one worth sharing broadly.
