Many hands make light work, therefore the Save Brainerd group is holding a Spring Cleaning day Saturday, May 12.
The event will be held from 9 a.m. to noon at the Brainerd Building, located at 416 W. Park Ave. Help clean out the winter cobwebs as the grounds are prepared for summer events.
Brainerd Community Center, Inc. is a non-profit, volunteer-run organization looking to save the historic building from demolition and repurpose it into a community center for the arts and education. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Sites. The structure is sound, however, funds are required for the restoration. Walk the halls, sweep the floors and visualize what a gem this building could be for the community. A little elbow grease goes a long way!

Is this just a show up and help or is registration needed?
