Greetings Friends -

Another week in the books - this cohort is going by really quickly!

This past week we got a lot done - and for most of our crew, it was the first time doing the types of work undertaken. People began weed-whacking that never did before. People used zero-turn mowers that never did before - it wasn’t easy and it wasn’t without some hiccups, but they all did a great job!

We worked at Bread Lock Park mowing, The Stine Farm weeding the Pollinator Garden, we maintained the Strykers Road trailheads and trail from Rte. 22 to 519, and did a litter sweep there - as well as at the Gateway Site along South Main Street in Phillipsburg. Add in some tool & vehicle Maintenance and a sidewalk chalk mural to celebrate Earth Day - and you can see it was a busy week. Rather than write about it, we’ll let the images speak for us. Roll that beautiful team footage!

More next week as start to plan for Arbor Day - and report out on the Community Day of Action with NORWESCAP.

Ever forward - until then-

Michael
