Be Excellent to the 'Space

These are projects that need to be done around the space for the benefit of the space. If you want to help out on a project dig right in, if you need guidance ask a board member, if you want help with a project post to the group and see who wants to help.

Once you start working on a project put your name after it. Once you finish a project move it down to the finished list so people know who to thank.

Cleaning the Grill

When you've finished using the grill heat it up to burn off the crud. Once the remains are burnt to ash use a grill brush to remove the remaining bits. Turn the grill to medium heat and apply vegetable oil to the grates. Let the grill cool down completely before putting on the fabric cover.

At the end of grilling season view this video for a thorough cleaning of the grill. https://www.google.com/search?ei=Fp6iXNGnM8O4tQWNvL7IAg&q=How+to+clean+a+gas+grill&oq=How+to+clean+a+gas+grill&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0i7i30j0j0i7i30l7j0.1679.1679..2682...0.0..0.288.288.2-1......0....1..gws-wiz.......0i71.eZUhHp96tmM#kpvalbx=1
