Four Seasons Parents Seek Help on Garden Improvements

Parents of children at Four Seasons Elementary are looking for volunteers and money to help improve the area near the school entrance.

Parents of students at Four Seasons Elementary are looking for help in sprucing up the school's main entrance. The PTA is seeking donations of new flowers, as well as sponsors and volunteer help in garden design, landscaping and planting.

Anyone interested in helping is asked to email Rebecca Feibel at fourseasonsgarden2012@gmail.com.
