Hi Folkc,
Our Geoff is back from his 3 month cruise and can't wait to start bossing us all around.
Has called a preparation maintenance day for Sunday 12th June.(Formerly 5th June -postponed due to bad weather)
Will be held at the `Urban Forest' site Cnr Blackshaws Road & Grieve Parade Altona North.
Will be pulling back the mulch and exposing the soil in preparation for drilling holes, adding water crystals for subsequent planting on NTD 31st July.
Please come along and meet at the car park in Blackshaws road opposite Croft Reserve.
If you can bring a rake would be much appreciated.
As usual Libby will be supplying morning tea.
Look forward to seeing you all at 10.00am where we can listen to Geoff's recent exploits, and then get into this `raking' caper.
