Help Us Clean Up the Woods

Don Vicars, the volunteer in charge of the maintenance of our trees and the woods, is organizing a cleanup of the woods this weekend.  Don writes the following:

The woods are an important asset to our community.   But like a garden, they require maintenance to stay healthy and look natural.  Each year, we have our tree vendor cut down dead trees and branches that are dangerous.   Other things fall on their own.   And homeowners put branches and shrubs in the woods.   It all adds up to wood on the ground.   A little wood scattered in the forest is healthy and looks natural.   Too much becomes a problem.

There are problem spots in the IFA forest that would benefit from a cleanup.  We are seeking volunteers this Sat, 6/19 to help cleanup large branches and small fallen trees that have accumulated over the years.  If you are interested in helping, please leave your name and number and someone will contact you.

Don has asked me to compile a list of volunteers and their phone numbers.  He will phone the volunteers and make arrangements for this Saturday's cleanup.  If you are interested in helping the community with this cleanup, please email me your name and phone number and I'll pass that information to Don.  My email address is at the bottom.

Thanks,
