Are you or an organization you belong to looking for a volunteer opportunity? The City of Menomonie Urban Forestry Board is looking for volunteers to help maintain several benches made by UW-Stout students using wood from ash trees that the city has cut down.
Individuals or organizations that adopt a bench will be expected to inspect it visually annually and then perform maintenance tasks such as sanding and refinishing. Each entity adopting a bench will receive a manual containing information about the bench, the type of finish used, and maintenance guidelines.
If you or your organization are interested in adopting a bench, don't hesitate to contact Megen Hines, Environmental Program Coordinator at mhines@menomonie-wi.gov or 715-232-2221 ext 1005.
