  • Organizations, clubs, teams get paired with a site on campus, per their preferences
  • Members routinely visit their site for clean-up each month throughout the year, setting set their schedules for accomplishing tasks, based upon their availability
  • Tasks include general clean-up, trash pick-up, and light, seasonal gardening periodically (coordinated with Facilities Management)
  • Coaches and Advisors act as liaisons with REVITALIZING WINTHROP, touching base periodically
  • Members benefit from gaining a positive sense of ownership, pride of place, and may earn service credits
  • Members can fulfill stewardship commitments, strengthen camaraderie among their colleagues, and increase our collective sense of positive well-being
  • Goals are elevating school spirit, enhancing community, and encouraging investment in campus care
