Chipping Day Photos

The first batch of photos from the July 8th 2017 chipping day have been uploaded.  Thanx again to all for the help!

 

Firewise Chipping & Bucking Day Success!

Thanx everybody for the great turnout and effort on our chipping and bucking day.  Combined we put in 64 hours of labor just today, cleared and chipped seven areas of brush and small timber, and got our firewood bunks bucked into usable sizes.  In addition to making our neighborhood safer — and looking nicer, too — we earned over $1400 of in-kind grant money for future projects!

We’ll post pictures to this site once we get them all downloaded.  A special thank you to Rich & Lindsey for the loan of The Monster Chipper  that worked so well for us …  it was one hungry beast!

Firewise/Chipping day – Sat July 8th at 8am

Howdy Neighbors!

Our annual Firewise and chipping day is this coming Saturday, July 8th, 2017, starting at 8am. Meet at Toni’s corner, the top of Evans Rd.  Drag your cuttings out to the road (cut ends out please), or someplace easy to drive to.

We will be running the chipper generously loaned to us by Rich and Lindsey’s parents.  We need a volunteer with a truck to pull the chipper (we have the pintle hitch), and a volunteer to photograph the event so we get our firewise credit.

If we have enough folks for the chipper, we’ll send a couple guys to buck last year’s firewood. So bring a chainsaw if you have one please.

Thanx, see y’all there!
