Annual MBA Service Day in Woodmont Park

[Trish Mixon]

Hello Friends,

Just sharing that we just finished the annual MBA service learning day in Woodmont Park.  Thirty-one senior and 7th grade Montgomery Bell students spent the morning in the park, planting two trees to replace dead or damaged ones, fertilizing and mulching virtually every tree in the park, repairing or replacing tree trunk protectors, and removing litter.  A big thanks to Montgomery Bell Academy for their continued support of Woodmont Park, one of the many organizations they serve each October.

Thanks to Metro Parks Department for supplying mulch and staff support for the volunteers, as well as clean up.  And thanks to neighbors Gary and Ruth Garrett for allowing us once again to use their yard as a staging ground, and to neighbor Mimi Rose for the donation of a very nice Overcup Oak tree to the park.

More photos will be on the website (soon):  www.friendsofwoodmontpark.com

Please come on out this weekend and enjoy our beautiful neighborhood park!
