Friends of Duboce Park is scheduling monthly volunteer work parties on the second Saturday morning of every month, from 9 a.m. to noon, to do basic maintenance in the park. Our first two work days in November and December were very successful and accomplished about a week's worth of work done each time. Please join us for all or part of the time.

We also are creating a Parents Playground Auxiliary to do maintenance inside the playground at the same time. The schedule for the first quarter of 2005 is: Jan. 8, Feb. 12 and March 12.
