Join Wooster alumni as we return to support Butterfly HopeÕs natural science and gardening, and creative program for DenverÕs inner-city kids. This program allows children to interact with nature through the summer program right in their own schoolyard. Butterfly Hope boosts the academic and social skills of these low-income students who have few, if any, opportunities to experience the joy of exploring the natural world. We will be winterizing the gardens, painting, building planters, and grooming the grounds. Children are welcome to work alongside their parents.

Please bring sunscreen (that Mile High sun can be dangerous!), drinking water, work gloves, and garden tools.

We will begin promptly at 9:00 a.m. Light breakfast will be provided.
