That was awesome. Congrats on the great job.
Hey! Still have more wood and would like to make tree guards for the pits around St. Marks to protect the bulbs. Can anyone help me? Mike Fagan was awesome. And I corraled another neighbor to transport the long tree guard parts up to the location. Everyone Thanks for the great work!.See you out on Nostrand.
Lisa wishes to point out she is not a Fagan.
….she kept her last name in this deal.
my name is spelled wrong, i must have had terrible hand writing on that volunteer list…it’s josh kanuck, not john kaneek.
Call me anything you like, but don’t call me too late for cupcakes! And again thanks for those extras.
Laurel, fantastic job bringing all parties together to make this event as effective as possible!
@Cher – Thanks!
@Rita – We’ll put out a request and see what bites.
@Mike – I figured I had a 50% chance of getting it right.
@Josh – Oops! I couldn’t figure out what those two letters were
Dude, I tried multiple iterations, “K-a-n-n-c-k”, “K-a-n-e-c-k” but that was the one that struck me as the most likely!
I’ll fix it.
@Daniel – Thanks, and thank you for coming out to plant, and with all your help with creating the flier!
Got the wood into my driveway, Thanks to Warren Reich and his truck. Now need hardy souls that would like to build easy tree guards. All tools provided.
Rita – I’m down for more fences!!! I have to measure the pits!!
I need a partner to help me measure the pits in the evenings or weekend morning/afternoon.
Any volunteers?
