Clearing a path

Rallying cry: Free the Agapanthus!

Update: Eleven hearty and willing bowlers gathered to clear the path to our old bowling green which runs behind several of our neighbor’s homes and Charlie Dohr Mini Park.  The path has not been cleared in recent memory and was buried in leaves from our magnificent oak tree and ivy.  We were cheered on by our neighbors with offers to help and much appreciation. All told, we removed two dozen large bags of debris from the alleyway.

Many thanks to Janine and Phillip Andrews, Cris and Claudia Benton, Annie Brillhart, Russell (Rolly) Coe, Leslie Engler, Patricia Erwin, Janie and Judy Hillyer, and Martin Kershaw.

Meanwhile Ethan Bortman, Glen Nunez and Gary Samonsky were hard at work making repairs on our sand shed to keep it dry in the upcoming rainy months.

All and all it was a very productive morning of work at the BLBC with even a little bowling afterwards.

Original call for participants: Some of you have been aware that the path between the North and South greens is overgrown.

On Thursday, July 24 we will assemble a group of able bodies to help clean up the path. The overgrowth removal involves trimming ivy and probably blackberries, bagging the material and wheelbarrowing it to the Acton entrance. We will be paying a non-member for her time, so the more members we have to help will cut down on her time.

We will assemble at 10 am on Thursday. No need to RSVP…just come on over.
