Planting the last of our trees
Bring your neighbors, friends and family when on Monday, May 22 at 5 pm we'll meet at Sandtown Park on Bluff Street to plant the last 48 of our 121 trees.
The City will do the digging so our part will be putting the trees in the holes and throwing in the dirt. It is easy peasy ... and we'll be done and done in short order!
Thanks to those members of SGR - and attendees at last month's WashCo Fair - we have sold another 34 cases for another $850, of sweet, delicious California oranges which will be delivered this week (watch for more information).
Our outdoor temps are creeping up, so please make every effort to pick up your order as soon after delivery as possible! Any questions? See PDG Linda for the answers.
SGR has purchased 150+ beautiful new children's books (about 1/3 in Spanish) for "littles" at the St. George Children's Museum. Please join us on Friday, May 26 at 4 pm on our way to posting flags at SG or Tonaquint cemeteries. Putting in the stickers and delivering the books will take only a few minutes!
