Successful Work Party on Tuesday, June 29 - Volunteers Making Difference! 

We had a successful work party Tuesday morning, June 29, clearing dead weeds and brush behind district hangars near the fuel pumps.  There where four volunteers from 6:00am to about 9:00am.  Jeff Thornhill, Knud Kirkegaard, Julie Bohlen and Terry Bohlen.  Jeff Robertson was staffing the airport office and also helped out.  There was cutting and trimming, raking and hauling brush to a trailer, then to a burn pile for future burning.

Most of the dead weeds and brush next to the district hangars (near the fuel pumps) was cleared.  Big change!  Additional clearing of some dead weeds is needed so if you missed this work party, there will be more!  

Next major work party will be mowing.

Thank-you to the volunteers!
