Kaukauna’s Rock the Block will run through Saturday, May 6, 2017, and organizers are looking for more volunteers, especially Saturday.
Kiel said volunteers will tackle 29 projects (19 residential and 10 community), with police/fire/municipality teams coming out to build, deliver snacks and support the efforts.
KHS band and choirs will perform Saturday with art students doing picnic table projects throughout the week.
Kaukauna businesses and community groups are providing lunches and snacks.
Beginning at noon Saturday, organizers will have van tours of the neighborhood with before and after photos. The public is invited to join in on a tour for free.
Rock the Block events showcase Habitat’s Neighborhood Revitalization program, which brings people together to improve the quality of life in targeted neighborhoods, according to a news release.
Beyond the Rock the Block event, residents in targeted neighborhoods will also be given access to Habitat’s home repair program providing critical home repairs, weatherization and larger-scale home preservation work.
