For this year's Summer Member Social, we are gathering as a community to help a local school community. Washington Montessori, an SLPS school located in the Fountain Park neighborhood, was in the direct path of the EF3 tornado that tore through St. Louis neighborhoods on May 16, 2025. While the district was able to renovate the school itself, the school's beloved garden has not been repaired. We hope you can join us to spruce up Washington Montessori's garden. The workday will be followed by a happy hour at Built Solutions / DIRTT.
