You’ve got FOUR work parties between now and next Tuesday, if you want a chance to get your hands dirty in your new community garden (or just “happen” to be walking by and want to ask questions).
Here they all are, including who’s the lead on the event and what you might be doing:
- Saturday, May 22, 10am-1pm: Debra leads you in spreading wood chips and planting; wheelbarrows, pitchforks, shovels, rakes, gloves, seeds and plants would be useful.
- Saturday, May 22, 3-5pm: Debra is back for more of the same!
- Sunday, May 23, 9am-1pm: Liz is on hand to guide volunteers in chip spreading, planting, and any other work that may need doing.
- Tuesday, May 25, 5-7pm: Susan (the garden designer) will be on hand to oversee garden work and answer your questions.
If you are interested in volunteering or learning more about the Ravenna Community Garden, email the group at ravennacommunitygarden [at] gmail.com.
There is a Ravenna Community Garden Google Group as well. AND Ravenna Community Garden is also on facebook.
Let's put this pile in its place, shall we?
If you never or seldom paid in to the Social Security sestym you will not be qualified for benefits, just like any other retirement plan. Most Baby Boomers are fine, they get their money and benefits. Only people that are spouses or dependents of a member, can legally get any benefits as well. Social Security was never meant to be an insurance program for ALL Americans, you have to contribute.Homeless? I suspect a few might. But the great majority of Baby Boomers are fine. And don’t worry about the government, they cant take anything away from you.Yes, it is the younger generations that needs to be thinking of their future. The government is gonna be getting out of annuity/insurance business. They would much rather see folks run their own retirement programs. Besides that, it is better for the economy that investments be made in the private sector.Most the Baby Boomers did just that, they have Social Security but they also have investments and annuities. It is gonna be rough on people that have to live just off Social Security and even worse for those that have nothing set aside for old age. They will become a burden to society.
