Saturday June 19th: Mulch Day in Isham Park

Mulch Day was a success for the Volunteers for Isham Park!  Many thanks to all for the hard work...

John Emmanuel lead the charge, with Jeff Dugan, Gail Addiss, Steve Bennett, new participants Leslie and Susan from John's apartment complex, and me.  We were exhausted and filthy at the end, but much had been accomplished...

Below is a photograph of the slope of the south hill and the condition of the bare soil before mulching, followed by one of the results after mulching; the Volunteers early in the day, and near the end:

Work day in Isham Park for the Volunteers on Saturday June 19th

Next Saturday June 19th, the Volunteers are planning a work day on the south slope of Isham Street near Park Terrace West and Isham Street.  We are planning to mulch the area we cleared earlier on May 15th, It's My Park Day.

The Parks Department is to deliver a full truck load of mulch, along with the necessary wheelbarrows and tools, so we can complete the task.

We are planning to meet at 10:30am and finish work by 2:00pm.  Please come out to assist.
