Trip Report

Twelve industrious volunteers mowed and trimmed. pruned and tended to beds, cleaned up blackberries and debris and cleaned the gutters. The grounds are looking well-cared for. After the work session, the group toured recent improvements - the septic riser, the new water spigot, the French drain project, the awaiting south end retaining wall and the French drain outlet. We accomplish so much together.
