Spring is definitely here, and the Neighborhood Association of the Back Bay Alley Rally 2013 will sweep through the neighborhood on Saturday, April 27, from 9 – 12. Coordinating with Mayor Menino’s Citywide Cleanup, come join your neighbors, including groups from local fraternities and some of our Back Bay schools, in sweeping the alleys and side streets. Thanks to donations from our local businesses, NABB provides coffee, juice, and doughnuts at the Clarendon Street Playground starting at 8:30 am. At 9, you will divide in groups and head off to clean. After you finish, there will be a picnic lunch (also donated by Back Bay businesses) for volunteers back at the Playground. This is a great way to know your neighbors and spruce up the neighborhood at the same time. NABB has been conducting Alley Rally since 1967! For further information, please contact Ellen Rooney at parnell3@verizon.net. Garden Club of the Back Bay member Janet Younker is pictured at right, below:

Saturday, April 24, 8:30 – noon – Alley Rally
What’s a good way to get to know your neighbors and work in a little exercise as well? The Back Bay Alley Rally! This annual neighborhood cleanup will take place on Saturday, April 24th, in conjunction with Mayor Menino’s Boston Shines. Volunteers of all ages gather with Chairs Ellen Rooney, Chris Mitchell and Roseann Colot at the Clarendon Street Playground at 8:30 am to fortify themselves with juice, coffee and doughnuts provided by our local stores. We then divide into teams and — using the rakes, shovels and brooms provided by the City of Boston — volunteers fan out to clean the alleys and side streets. Your labors will end at noon, when everyone returns to the playground for a picnic lunch, with food donated by our local businesses. Bring your own fashionable gloves, of course.
