Adopt A Roadway Event on July 27

Common Ground is teaming up with our campus neighbors an·them church and Parkside Fellowship for a community service project. 

On July 27 we'll be cleaning up Erickson Avenue as part of Beaverton's Adopt-A-Roadway program. This is a great opportunity to fellowship with our faith neighbors and get some exercise.  It is also a great example of the D.R.E.A.M. initiative--Engaging Our Community. 

We'll follow that with a church picnic at the park next door.  BECAUSE we'll be having this picnic, there will not be a Church Potluck on the first Sunday of July. 

Here's what you need to know:
