February 23rd's Volunteer Day -- Thanks to everyone who came out in the soggy weather!

We made a dent in the english ivy (an invasive species) that's slowly been taking over the copse of trees near the playgrounds.  It helped having lots of help of all ages -- including some members from Chamblee High's Beta Club.

It was a team effort!

A Rich's bag! Seriously?!

Thanks, Luke & Carlo!

We neaten paths and caught-up with neighbors!

Rudy & Trey took a canoe into the cove and made a yeoman's effort to collect much of the debris that had washed into the lake due to the recent rains.
