[Neighbors] FW: Spring Fling at Angel Park

[Newbould, Peter]

Dear Neighbors:  We hope that you can join us this Saturday morning for this group project to landscape Angel Park.  As the note below from project coordinator Angie Moran notes, there's a lot to do.  Plan to meet us at the tot lot in the 200 block of West Taylor Run Parkway.  Please contact Angie at angiecoffmanmoran at hotmail.com and tell her you'll be there!

Subject:	SPRING FLING AT ANGEL PARK

Hello Everyone!
This Saturday is the Spring Fling at Angel Park.  From 9am-12pm we will be mulching trees, creating flower beds, removing trash from the creek and cutting English Ivy at the base of trees.  The Kudzu vines that were sooooo invasive and such a pain for us last October seem to be under control at the moment.  The ivy, however, is suffocating many a tree in our area.  If you take a look at the downed trees around Angel Park you will notice that most of them were weakened by either English ivy or Kudzu.
If you plan on helping out please let me know you're coming.  (angiecoffmanmoran at hotmail.com)  
Things to bring if you have them:
waterproof boots (for removing trash in the creek)
small pruners (for ivy)
a wheel barrow (for moving mulch)
a large shovel (for digging out flower beds)

Make sure to label what ever tools you bring with your name or address.  The City will be bringing gloves, trash bags, and personnel.  If you have garden gloves go ahead and wear them just in case we run out.  (Also, yours might be thicker than what the City supplies).
Remember that you don't have to stay for the full three hours.  One hour is better than no hours.  Make sure to sign in at the Tot Lot when you arrive.  Our supplies are being reimbursed with the Neigborhood Partnership grant money that we received, so we need to show all our volunteer hours.
Other improvements are underway at the park as well.  The tee ball field is awaiting good weather for the completion of its maintenance that was started last week and a design has been approved for the new play structure at the Tot Lot.  
I hope to see some of you on Saturday.

Thanks,
Angie Moran
