Updates from 4/5th on 6-3-2011

Pleasant day, 80* degrees, so we got lots of time outside. We were able to reallocate 9 water bags from trees that didn't need it, and fill up 3 bags to feed the 3 yews we transplanted last week.

Since Arlington County wasn't able to pick up and compost the plants we removed, we put them in an area here on campus where they could degrade naturally. This was hard work, and big thanks to the staff in the main office for letting us use a cart to transplant these heavy shrubs.

Big thanks to Rockbottom Restaurant for scheduling a food and drink donation to the hungry thirsty workers in this early summer heat! We are also excited for every student to bring a rock to paint their name on. Jack made contact with Patrick Wegeng with Arlington County Parks and Rec, and they hope to donate some gravel and rock to the cause.
