CCC Honor Student Workday
Saturday, September 09 2023
Honor students from Carroll Community College will be having a workday on the 9th. They will be divided into about 4 groups to do the following:
Trail mulching
Invasive plant removal
Vine removal
Inventorying our young trees with sleeves to clean them up and possibly remove sleeves
Staining picnic tables
Mulching around trees
Clean up around trees in our Memory Grove area and mulching
Berry snipping
Their coordinator, Amanda DeRose has been instructed as such-
For most of these tasks we will be using hand tools as well as shovels, wheelbarrows, etc. The students will need to -
Bring (if you have them- please label with your name as well)
Small hand tools (if you have them) and GLOVES!
No chainsaws or other power tools.
Plenty of water and a small snack
Wear:
Long pants
Work boots or strong supportive shoes/hikers
Hat
Long sleeves or garden sleeves
Insect repellent and sunscreen
Tick protection, etc.
They will be starting at around 9 AM. and be working until about 2:45. So our team will need to arrive sometime between 8:30/8:45 to coordinate and set up.
I'd like to plan on the first shift to be from 9-11:45 with a break for lunch from 12-12:45 and then 12:45-3.
