Sturdy, thick-soled, closed footed shoes are required (No Crocs). We strongly recommend wearing boots; however, we realize that not all volunteers own a pair of boots. Our Site Supervisors have final say as to if a certain type of shoe is allowed on the construction site.
Lunch/Water: Please bring a lunch. We will have a cooler of water on site however we recommend that you bring a water bottle, this helps us cut down on plastic waste.
