Sunday, Nov 19, from 1pm to 5pm we need volunteers to help fix some lingering concerns at our new fields. If you haven’t been out lately, soccer and field hockey/lacrosse have become glorious sights to see -

come out next Sunday to help restore areas that need help now, and to bring the whole area up to a better position for the coming winter. Sunday, Nov 19, we need:

  1. A bobcat - to do minor grading at the toe of the hill at SW soccer, to level the area out
  2. A subdrain installed near the south soccer drop inlet, to allow drainage below the future pathway
  3. Wheelbarrows and shovels to distribute DG for 4 ft walkways from the road around the hill, and out toward football practice
  4. Pliers and strong shoulders to re-install the Gum Ranch fencing entrance
  5. Buckets and trowels to carry soil out to the fields, and fill holes that have formed -especially around drop inlet vaults - lifting the sod up and restoring it at the right height
  6. Round shovels to dig up sprinkler heads and valves needing adjustment throughout the field

Please send your “Yes, I’d Like to Help!” message to Jim Hartley at jhartley57@sbcglobal.net; remember to include your phone number.

And remind your students that this counts toward their community service hours - what else could they possibly need to do this Sunday before their week off?
