Thank you to our 3 volunteers for Clean Up, Green Up Day


Despite one of our lowest turnouts ever (only 3 other people participated), we still managed to plant 5 crape myrtle trees, 10 red bud trees, 50 daffodil bulbs, and pick up trash.  The trees are along Fort Washington Road between St. Andrews and the southern intersection with West Tantallon Drive.  We added one crape myrtle on the small island on St. Andrews Drive to replace the tree that had died there a few years ago. 
Thank you to Carter Ferrington (who helped me plant the trees), Jacque Akselrad, and JoAnn Davis.  And a big thank you again to Mariano Flaim, of Flaim Brothers, Inc., for picking up the trees, mulch, and bulbs from the county!  We really appreciate his help, as I would not have been able to pick up the trees myself.
Please consider helping us in the future.  It doesn't take that long, and we all enjoy the fruits of our labor.
The trees will need water, so if anyone is interested in watering them, please let me know.   We could also use some help trimming the vines off of the fences along Fort Washington Road.
