Friends of Granby Homes for Senior Citizens, Inc. held its spring Community Serve Day on May 3 at Stony Hill Village, Granby’s 49-unit affordable senior housing community.
Despite the weather and the Granby Road Race, more than two dozen volunteers participated, including GHSC board members, Stony Hill Village residents, members of the Granby Community Fund, and volunteers from Waste Not Want Not. Volunteers ranged in age from 12 to 87. There was something for everyone to do—special thanks to the Northwestern CT Cyber Lions Club for securing insurance for this event as a co-sponsor.
A large dumpster was secured to assist residents with removing unwanted items, and numerous beautification projects were completed to enhance the grounds and shared spaces. Volunteers brought in large equipment to remove dead shrubs and debris.
Looking ahead, additional service days are planned with support from the Simsbury-Granby Rotary Club and Axa Insurance, continuing the effort to keep Stony Hill Village a welcoming and well-maintained community.
