Crew members started arriving just before 8 a.m. Saturday for a day long work party that Erik and Warren had organized. Erik had specified and ordered the plants, which the city had to approve. Warren had 40 yards of topsoil hauled in.
Erik had outlined two planting beds -- both on 104th Avenue Northeast -- one by the sidewalk just south of the big church sign and one at the north corner of the property. He also staked out locations for 10 street trees along the north border of the property.
By the end of the day, Erik, Nolan, Caleb, Warren, Don, Jim, Bram, Bob J., Larry, Lori, Cameron, Steve, Deb, Lee plus Alida, Hank and Allie and several of their friends had it all planted.
Still to be done: staking the trees, planting a third bed near the driveway entrance after the mobile units are gone and digging is done, figuring out what to do with the plants for that bed in the meantime, and watering all the new plantings regularly.
