It is time to think of warm sunshine, cool lakes and the scent of evergreens. It’s also time to prepare the Guggenheim Center for the summer!

The schedule is filled with Summer Camp, Family Camp, retreats, meetings and parish events!

It takes a lot of work to prepare “our home on the water” for a busy summer. Lots of work is needed in the Dorm, Dining Hall, In and Rec Building. To complete that work, the annual Guggenheim Clean-up Days will be held from noon on May 19 to 2 p.m. on May 21.

Some of the tasks to be completed are:
•  General cleaning of rooms, windows and furniture including washing, mopping, dusting and vacuuming

•  Kitchen clean-up

•  Power washing building exteriors

•  Care for canoes, kayaks and related equipment

•  Painting

Can you pitch in for a day? An afternoon? An hour? The more help, the more we can accomplish.

There’s no need to bring any cleaning supplies other than gloves and protective gear you may like. Materials and supplies will be provided. Those under 18 are welcome if accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Lunch will be served both days. Snacks and drinks will be available as well.
