[Summit] community garden work day this Saturday

[Greg Gerritt]

The committee working with the city on creating a community garden at the
9th St tot lot park is happy to finally announce some progress and therefore
a WORK DAY.  We are not going to build the garden this Saturday at 9 AM, but
we are going to do some of the preliminary work.  Some cleaning, some laying
out where the garden will go.  Things like that.  Once the preliminary¹s are
done, like the city puts in the waterline, we shall build a fence around the
garden and build beds.

We are going to hold a lottery for garden beds.  We shall have 30 beds this
year.  Hopefully ready to plant by late May.  The lottery is ONLY available
to those who participate in a work day.  People who have done all the leg
work ( about 10 people) to bring the project this far, are grandfathered
into a bed, but that still leaves a number of beds available for people
signing up in person at the work day this Saturday. April 23.    If you can
not make it Saturday on Short notice, further planning for the next work day
is Monday April 25 at 7 PM  meet at the park, then we shall go to a house
nearby for discussion and planning.
