Happy Holidays from All of Us at Audubon Newhall Preserve
Eight hardy volunteers pitched in at the December 10th Newhall Work Day. Shown in the first photo below (from left to right) are Vice-Chair Lynn Hodgson, VMI lineman Jim Reynolds, Miho Kinnas, Karen Lucey, “Doc” Hilton Klein, and “Brooklyn“ Sal Gioia. Not shown are photographer and Fearless Leader, Bob Clemens, and “Boat Captain” Jay Rawl, who arrived 30 seconds later. Jim Reynolds honchoed a crew that relined the Branch Wood Trail with logs (second photo) and cleared debris from the northeast corner of the parking area. Bob Clemens and his crew cleared an area near the aeration pumps that had been cluttered with discarded lumber and trash. Bob and Sal hauled the debris to the recycle center (thus avoiding more hauling of logs) and returned to find the work almost done! (Good timing!) In the third photo, Jim shows Lynn and Bob his crew’s accomplishments! Many thanks to all who participated.
Our next work day is planned for Saturday January 14th from 8:30 to 10 AM. We will spread milled asphalt and gather brush to be hauled away by Sea Pines’ CSA. RSVPs are helpful, but not required, to Bob Clemens at rclemens318@gmail.com or text (317) 989-5777.
