The Historic South Side Home Tour occurs each May. Volunteers are needed to do one or more of the following:

• Inform the committee of houses that might be suited for our home tour
• Volunteer on the day of the tour
• Lead the committee to businesses for ads and sponsor

• Clean the riverside trail. Meet periodically during the spring/summer/fall to clear weeds, dead trees, etc. along the trail generally on Saturday mornings.
• Plant street trees twice a year (spring and fall) that are provided by the City.
• Mulch and weed existing tree pits as needed throughout the year.
• Pick an area of your choice (your block, several blocks etc.) to weed and/or spray weed killer (which will be provided) and pick up trash every two weeks or as needed.

• A code enforcement monthly meeting during which time is devoted to talking about refuse regulations, violations and remediation.  
• Volunteers monitor their block for refuse violations, talk to their neighbors or place an orange compliance notice on their door.  If it is not remedied after two notices, volunteer would need to add info onto a spreadsheet so that the South Watch committee could file a 311 service request which would be routed to Environmental Services.  They will also need to keep track of properties that have been remediated.
• Volunteers may also want to attend the meetings to learn about what is happening on SS and how city officials and residents are solving issues.
• Volunteers share concerns about houses with code violations that have not been remedied through the 311 service request process.

Join the host committee to plan the event that will be the kickoff to a year long storytelling project.
