Spring Clean-up Day, April 26

Late to be sure - but with pictures. Thanks to Kristine for pictures and report:

Helping out with clean up day: Ed's wife Whitney; Scott Remmich; Kevin Turner; Frank Lucero; Town Council member Steve Sanchez; Judy Reynolds; Pam Pettingill; Anita Soluna; Craig Lockwood (ag teacher at high school); me; Girl Scout Troop #? and troop leader. Red Kingston and his kids were there helping too. I (Kristine) made scones and coffee for volunteers. Scott provided bags, gloves, water. High school students made the sign on elem. school fence. Vel helped Friday night, and of course Susan Brazil was our liaison with the waste disposal people.

Local residents bringing in loads; Kevin & Whitney (loading themselves?)

Ed Note: by all accounts, a great success (cleaned up in the polls/at the box office). All three 30-yd dumpsters were full by just past midday. As invariably happens on clean up days, a presumably not representative handful - all of whom should and no doubt did know better, some more than others - jumped the gun and dumped the night before. Another town clean-up day is planned for October.

Next: minimalist splingo (spring fling bingo) report + pics
