Va Park Prep Days

Going - Going -Gone.

You really had to be there to appreciate this. If I understood correctly, 185 cubic yards of mulch were carried to the playground site by hand.

Great Weekend in Virginia Park

We got so much done in Virginia Park this weekend and had a great time as well. We had a cook-out on Saturday, got the entire Bond Ave. fence painted as well as half the backstop, powerwashed and started painting the picnic table, planted flowers, varnished the wooden park signs and removed garffiti from playground equipment.
