UPDATE: The Champaign Park District has cancelled the Boneyard Creek Community Day event for April 18.

Official release: We have been closely following the Center for Disease Control guidelines on the Coronavirus (COVID-19). To continue to be proactive toward our community’s health, we have decided to postpone this years Boneyard Creek Community Day. We will continue to update everyone if we decide to reschedule for the fall or focus on smaller cleanups throughout the year.

===============================================

Saturday, April 18, 2020 is one of Pack 9's signature service days: the Boneyard Creek Community Day. Check-in with event staff is at 9:00am at Kaufman Lake. We're typically done by 11:00am. Come when you can; leave when you need to. Please signup on this Pack 9 page so that we can provide organizers a rough headcount.

What to Wear?
Dress to work outside. No open-toed shoes. Scouts should wear either the purple Pack 9 t-shirt or the orange Boneyard shirt from a previous year if you have one. Otherwise, event staff typically have more orange Boneyard shirts on-site for volunteers.

What about Rain?
For more information and potential weather related delays/cancellation please see the Facebook event page the morning of the clean-up. If the event is canceled, it will be posted on the Facebook page.

The rain date is scheduled for Saturday, May 2, 2020.

Post Party
Immediately after the cleanup, a free lunch for volunteers will be served at Scott Park, where there will be music and interactive learning displays. It usually starts between 11:00 and 11:30.
