| Volunteer Fence Day - Sun., Nov. 18th, 8:45am: We are on the home stretch but have our biggest volunteer day left. Assuming weather patterns cooperate, we will be having the last big push to get this done. Since this is where we'll be fastening the fence rails & stiles up and have a lot of ground to cover (about 500 boards to screw in), this is the most important one to show up for. Adam Hellman is expecting this to be a 4 hour activity, assuming we have good turnout. |
