Plans for progress toward Cleanliness

In an effort to help people know when the clutter was collected and removed from the building, I have taken pictures of what we are throwing out as we go.

If you are missing something valuable, please check the lost and found area first... to see if you can rescue it.

If it is not in the lost and found area, then please check the pictures on the following website:
Cleanliness

Our intent is not to throw away anything valuable to anyone. Our intent is to provide a clean and safe environment for all users of the building. As you attempt to clean up the clutter, I would encourage you to continue to use the shed as a temporary staging area as the clutter moves toward the trash, but please be aware that it is also a very unsafe place that will need to be torn down in the not too distant future.

As you prepare to remove clutter, please be considerate of others and do not simply move it to other areas of the building as a shortcut.

Kara is working with me to choose the next areas to address, so please provide me with any input about areas that you feel are off limits. Right now, our plans are to proceed as follows:

Completed:
Summer - Two full dumpsters plus 6 Herbies per week or so plus overflow at times.
Week 0 - Extra clutter removal throughout the building to prepare for the debate on Oct 16th ( Seven Herbies full plus overflow thrown away on 12th )
Week 1 - Sanctuary Closets / Mike's Office ( 6 Herbies full thrown away on 19th )
Week 2 - Mike's Office / Supply Closets ( to be thrown away on 27th )

Proposed:
Week 3 - Bookstore ( to be thrown away on Nov 2nd )
Week 4 - Sound Room Closet ( to be thrown away on Nov 7th )
Week 5 - Classroom clutter on floor ( to be thrown away on Nov 16th )
Week 6 - Bathroom / Closet in front of fellowship hall ( to be thrown away on Nov 23th )
Week 7 – Please provide input to Kevin ( to be thrown away on Nov 30th )
Week 8 – Please provide input to Kevin ( to be thrown away on Dec 7th )

Communication is a key to this being successful. Please let me know if there is anything we can do better!

Tatesbrook polos were found by Kara wrinkled up in a pile of dirty trash in what looked to be a gift bag.

She folded them neatly, placed them in a blue milk carton and tucked them away in Mike's closet ( after cleaning Mike's closet, of course )
