"We feel that it is important to take time off from our normal busy work schedule to give back to the community," said Lehr. We (the Sharks and the Law Firm of Abigail Williams and Associates) are fortunate to have great partners like Consigli Construction to step up this year. I would like to thank the city of Worcester, Department of Public Works and Public Schools for making this project a reality."
The Sharks, the office of the Law Firm of Abigail Williams and Associates, and Consigli Construction, will roll up their sleeves and revamp the exterior and interior and of the Elm Park Community School in Worcester.
