Update on the work party (Saturday May 25, 10: a.m. following Fitcamp) Unless the rain decides to give us a miss at the last minute, it will be indoors-only. Unfortunately, we don't have a huge list of indoor tasks, but a few helpers would still be appreciated. But, if it looks like it will be dry between 10 and noon, bring your rakes and shovels! We'll have work to do.
