Volunteers from SABIC - formerly known as
GE Selkirk - will help spruce up the gardens and wildlife
classroom area of the Pieter B. Coeymans Elementary School
on May 15.
The volunteers will work alongside
faculty and staff members on May 15, tilling, pulling
weeds, spreading mulch and planting perennials on the
school's grounds, located on Church Street in Coeymans.
Students, faculty and staff traditionally
maintain the gardens and wildlife trail at the school, which
provides an outdoor classroom for nearly all of the school's
grade levels. The volunteers from SABIC will help their
efforts in preparing for the spring and summer seasons.
Faculty, staff and community members will donate perennials
for planting by the SABIC workers.
The SABIC employees' effort continues a longtime tradition
by GE Selkirk workers to support the elementary schools
through volunteers to clean and update the gardens and
nature trails at Pieter B. Coeymans and A.W. Becker
elementary schools.
