Volunteer Day ~ January 24th ~ A Morning in NOMA!


Please join NOMA in a Volunteer Work Day! 

Saturday January 24th 

8:00am ~ 12:00pm 

Four North Main Sites

♦  1131 N. Main Street / Tree Planting

NOMA joins the City of Salisbury and the Community Development Corporation in the continuation of the beautification project we've been doing at the corner of E. 11th Street and North Main Street.  The abandoned A.T.I.C. gas station has been demolished, new storm drains installed, and new gutters take the place of old driveway aprons (Thank you, NC DOT!).  The new green space has been graded and seeded.  Now we get to do the fun stuff!  Plant trees!  (If you'd like to try something fun, go to Google maps and type in 1131 N. Main Street, Salisbury NC ~ and go to 'Street View'.  When you first land on Main Street, it's a beautiful summer day, crepe myrtles in bloom, and as you travel north on Main Street, our A.T.I.C. gas station is there....but when you cross the 11th Street intersection, it becomes a wintery morning.  Turn around to the south again...and the gas station is gone!  You can see some of the work in progress!)


♦  1428 N. Main Street / General Exterior Clean Up

NOMA joins the Historic Salisbury Foundation in their efforts, via their Revolving Fund, to stabilize the circa 1900 home at 1428 N. Main Street.  Work has already begun in repairing windows and chimney flashings.  We can help too!


♦  1600 N. Main Street / General Exterior Clean Up

The 2nd NOMA home to receive the services of Historic Salisbury Foundation's revolving fund ~ we'll be helping to stabilize the circa 1912 home at 1600 N. Main Street.  Help us pitch in with general exterior clean up...clipping, pruning, weeding, and trimming!



♦  1600 N. Main Street / General Exterior Clean Up
 


Not one, not two, but THREE houses in our North Main Neighborhood are now under the Historic Salisbury Foundation's wing!  We'll be cleaning up here too!

So grab your friends, your family, your neighbors, and join our neighbors in our Volunteer Day!

Please plan to meet at 1600 N Main Street at 8:00 am or anytime you can make it between 8am and noon on January 24th.  Please bring rakes, gloves, and hand pruners, etc., and make sure your name is on all tools. 


This event is rain or shine!

Tell your friends, tell your neighbors!  
This is a come-one, come-all event!
