    Hello again (finally) to this fascinating and wonderful Clutch Community Group,

    I realize this is last minute, however employees from my wife's company (Fugro Chance Inc. [FCI]) are volunteering at the "Rivers, Lakes, Bays 'n Bayous Trash Bash" this coming weekend. We'd love it if you would consider volunteering!!

    FCI, along with Clutch Community as a support group, has selected the 2015 Trash Bash (http://www.trashbash.org) to demonstrate environmental stewardship by removing litter from bayous, rivers, bays and lakes. Trash Bash is a half day event on Saturday, 28-March, from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM, where volunteers collect trash in pre-selected areas in and around Houston.

    The site selected for FCI and Clutch Community is Buffalo Bayou-Upper (Terry Hershey Park from Highway 6 to Beltway 8). Lunch will be provided, as well as a little entertainment.

    Please see the below link to access the registration form. If possible, it is recommended to travel to the site in groups as parking might be limited. Most people will need to park on Memorial Mews St. and Memorial View Dr. and walk to the registration location at the 15200 Memorial Drive pavilion. Completed registration forms are turned in at 15200 Memorial Drive.

    Schedule for the Day
    8:30-9:00 Registration
    8:30-11:00 Litter pickup
    11:00-12:00 Lunch
    12:00-13:30 Entertainment


    Registration Form:
    http://www.trashbash.org/uploads/2/2/0/8/22083236/registration_form_english.pdf

    Wear work boots or sturdy closed toe shoes and clothes suitable to clean wooded areas along Buffalo Bayou. Prior to attending to event, review the Safety Video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liLzjAfR_n4. Be advised to bring gloves and use insect repellant and sunscreen.

    When accepting the invitation, please provide the number of attendees in your family/group, and list "Fugro Chance Inc./Clutch Community" as your Club, Group, Company.

    We appreciate your assistance and support. My wife and I look forward to a successful and charitable 2015! :)

    I also want to thank everyone who showed up tonight at Lucky's Pub and the Championship game. It was a great time and we appreciate your attendance.

    Go Rockets!

    Regards,
    Roc Paint

    Alright fellows and dames...we are hoping for a great turnout at this months event with Fugro and the Trash Bash this coming Saturday! What is better than cleaning up Houston, peeps? I realize March Madness is happening, but feel free dip out early - if need be - or be home by (NLT) 12:30 PM to catch the afternoon starters if you stay for the finale / lunch.

    So far we have the following volunteers:
    • SK34 (possibly dipping out early)
    • texaskan (possible dipping out early)
    • Mr. Clutch
    • CCorn (+1)

    Be sure to complete the registration form at the following link (and please list 'Fugro/Clutch Community' under the "Group" tab:
    http://www.trashbash.org/uploads/2/2/0/8/22083236/registration_form_english.pdf
    And watch the Safety Video at:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liLzjAfR_n4

    Come one, come all. Roc Paint and I are going (it's his birthday week and this is what he wants) so...who's coming with us?!

    Thanks. We are looking forward to seeing everyone there!

    RocRouge

    Isn't it so obvious when my wife posts under my moniker?

    C'mon lets get together and do some spring cleaning. :cool:

    I'll be working on something different for April now.;)
