February 2005  Jewtraw & Power Street Parks Revitalized

Following our regular meeting some stalwarts dedicated our Park revitalization project. Last year we trimmed all the trees, planted 21 additional trees, added grills to both parks and additional picnic tables. Fences were repaired and a new fence added in Power Street Park. In the spring of 2005 we will add playground equipment to both parks. both parks have new flower gardens.

Highway Pick up

    Our club maintains the 2 mile stretch of Rt 73, from Mt Van Hovenberg Rd to just beyond The South Meadow Farm Lodge & Maple Sugar Works. Several stalwarts pick up 5--6 bags of "trash" three times a year. This activity is coordinated by the club service committee, even though it really is a Community Service (this shows how flexible our organization is).

On 10/16 the stalwarts were: Peggy Blazer, John Huttlinger, Al Dunham, Jamie Rogers  and John Davies (pictures will be taken next time, which will be in the spring)


Parks

  Recent educational event Paver Stone 101 and 102 was instrumental in installing paver stone pads around the grills in our two "revitalized parks. see Projects for more information..

 

 


Fences repaired, trees trimmed, picnic tables and grills added.

Playground Equipment

   We relocated the above from Peacock Park in September 2004.  The train was added in June 2005.

In total we added 21 trees to the two parks.
