When is Rake Up Boise?

Saturday, November 19, 2011

What supplies does Rake Up Boise supply for the teams?

We provide the leaf bags. Teams will need to bring their own rakes, gloves, etc.

Will I need to be home when the volunteers come to rake my yard?

No, you don't have to be home. Put on your application that you won't be there, so we can tell your team. Please confine your animal and keep the gate unlocked.

Can teams rake on a different day?

We encourage you to rake on November 19th. If teams need to, they can rake on a different day. Please put the date you will rake on your team application. You will also need to let the senior know what day you'll be raking.

When will I know that my house has been chosen to be raked?

You will be notified by the team captain within one week of raking.

When will the teams receive their assigned houses?

We will notify you at least one week in advance.

I have a dog/cat, what should I do with it during Rake Up Boise™?

Please confine your animal during the time that the volunteers are at your home. Also, make sure all animal droppings are picked up. If there is animal waste in the yard, the volunteers will not rake your yard.

My yard was raked last year. Do I need to send in another application?

Yes, please send in an application this year. You must apply every year to have your yard raked.
