May 26, 2018 - Work Party in the Vale of Cashmere

Thank you so much to our volunteers who took time on Memorial Day Weekend to offer their assistance.  We could never have gotten as much accomplished as we did without your help.  Volunteers:   David D., Ray, Ruthie, Dean, Clint, Ann, Jason, Aubrie, Shannon, Stacy, Jacob, Jessica, Stacy Jr., Shane, Dave O., Lynn and Anne.

We excavated a large amount stonework in the channel in the upper pool that had been covered for decades; removed at least four large trees and roots from near the stonework; cleared the first pool of weeds, and got rid of a huge patch of multiflora rose along the trail.
