Sunday Donor Plunge for Living Springs Kickstarter Campaign (July 31, 8:30am)

To support the Kickstarter campaign for the Livings Springs Interactive Documentary, Karen Kocher’s amazing and beautifully crafted labor of love, we’re asking every Friend and swimmer to pitch into the campaign (http://kck.st/2a0cgME), and then join us this Sunday (July 31, 8:30am) at the Springs for a Morning Leap!  If we all pitch in just $10, Karen can reach her fundraising goal, but any contribution helps.  Donate now (http://kck.st/2a0cgME), tell your friends, and join us for the Sunday Donor Plunge!!!!!!

Yo, Friends of the Springs!  Summer is here, but despite the recent rain, there is still plenty of work to be done to help take care of Barton Cleaning-pic-for-Picnic-inviteSprings.   And since you’ve been playing coy all summer, waiting for us to beg before you come plunge in the pool, here’s your personal invite to come take care of Barton Springs Pool, our beloved watering hole, by signing up for pool cleaning shifts on August 4, 2016.

Pool cleanings take place in two-hour increments from 9-11 am, 11am – 1pm, and 1-3 pm.

At the seasonal monthly pool cleanings, FBSP volunteers scrub rocks, vacuum the pool bottom, clean algae off steps and railings, skim algae off the pool surface, plant flowers and help maintain the pool grounds, paint benches and trim, and generally lend a hand to make the pool and grounds as clean and beautiful as possible.

So come roll up your sleeves, bring a friend, have a snack and enjoy the company of other Barton Springs enthusiasts. We look look forward to seeing you there!
