Howdy Neighbors!

Here’s the plan for this coming Saturday’s mitigation day:  We’ll meet at the corner of Evans & Fallon Roads at 8:30am, with the intent to work until 12:30.  We’ll forgo the chipper this time around, instead focusing on cutting and stacking.  We’ll tackle three areas, in this order, based upon how many workers we get:

1. Hand trimming along Fallon Rd.  Bring hand clippers!  This is where most of us will work.  The stuff there is too thin to use a chainsaw, but seems too big to mow.
   
2. We’ll put one crew (1 sawyer + 2 swampers) with Walt back in his gully.  Walt has done a ton of great work in there already, but the east end of the gully could use help.  That crew will work under his direction, since it’s his place.
3. If we still have enough people, then one or two saw crews on the east side of Mt Herman Lane, just short of the north end, clearing the right-of-way.  Probably just 90 mins to get this area done.
   

So regardless of whether you’re working #1, 2, or 3 – please meet at Fallon & Evans, at 0830.  We’ll dispatch from there, and probably adjust a bit from the above plans.

We hope to do a day focused on chipping sometime soon (end of June?); this way everyone has some time to drag stuff out to the road or other easy-to-reach areas.

Also: we could use a photographer, as we’ve done in the past, to document the activity.  A good cellphone camera is fine.

Thanx, see y’all Saturday!
