After a couple of weather related cancellations, our annual spring cleanup took place today. Close to 30 students, teacher-supervisor (Danielle Peters) and 6 volunteers attended to do various yard and house cleanup tasks. Their hard work today was most appreciated. They consumed 78 hot dogs, cookies, and soft drinks. Kudos to everyone involved.
