Raking will take place Wednesday, October 22 - Saturday, October 25. Weather backup and leaf pickup dates are scheduled on Monday, October 27 and Tuesday, October 28. You let us know which dates you are available to rake, and we will assign you yards based on your group size and availability.

Thursday, October 23

Friday, October 24

Are you available to assist with leaf pickup from other yards that have already been raked? This is especially helpful in municipalities where leaves must be transported to a yard waste site. If so, indicate which dates you are available:

We understand that Make a Difference Day is a rain-or-shine event. If weather prevents us from raking on our selected day, we will plan to rake on the backup dates (October 27 or 28).

Teams should plan to bring their own rakes, gloves, tarps, and leaf blowers. Homeowners have been asked to provide leaf bags in municipalities where required, however we recommend bringing leaf bags as well. Is your team able to haul leaves if required by the municipality (e.g., Stettin, Maine, Rib Mountain, Kronenwetter, etc.)? Instructions will be provided with your assignment.

Yes

No

Would your team like to pick up and deliver a small resource bag to each homeowner as part of your raking assignment? These bags contain information and small household items to brighten the homeowner's day. Pickup instructions will be provided with your assignment.

Yes, we would like to deliver resource bags.

No, not at this time.
