A Day of Service

A few simple signs and a whole lot of loving hearts and helping hands made a fun day of service. Someone estimated that we had about 120 people helping to clean up the garbage from the flood. It was so nice to see all of the kids so excited to help. A special thanks to Gary Clark for the use of his dump truck, caution cones, and for manning the bob cat. Thank you to the neighbor for the use of the bob cat and space for parking. Thank you Carol and Wanda for the coffee and banana bread. Thanks for those that brought trash bags. And a HUGE thanks to all of you who came a so willingly gave up your Saturday morning for a neighbor. Sorry to those that I did not get pictures of, but here are a few fun ones.

We ended up removing 4.56 TONS (over 9,000 lbs) of trash and debris from the yard in a matter of about 2 1/2 hours. As I said in my flyers, "Many hands make light work!"
