Fall Work Party

Saturday's work party actually began on Friday.  Tim and Gayle met to begin applying weather protectant to the floats and pier.   Karl showed up to help us clean TONS of bird droppings from the floats before we could begin.  Thanks Karl and special thanks to Tim for spending all day Friday on the project.

 

A more tedious job than expected, 7 hours later the floats were almost finished.

 

 

Saturday morning was perfect for a work party, weather was good, supplies were ready,

but unfortunately we were limited on people. Only nine bodies appeared. 



 

 

Sally tried to hide but we soon put her to work weeding the flowers.

 

 

Diane came to her rescue and helped with the weeding.

 

 

Ed went to work weeding under the mailboxes.

 

 

He did an amazing job due to excellent supervision from Dixie.

 

 

Harold showed up ready to help assist Tom install the solar lights. 

 

 

 



Our own perfect Vanna, Judy heads for the pier with a bucket of solar lights.

 

 

Karl did a great job staining the shower and making it look brand new. 

 

 

With so few people strategic planning was a must.  Sally and Karl discuss weed hauling.



 

 

Tom was there.  As much as he could be with leaving for hunting Sunday morning on his mind.

 

 

Barbara kept us all in line and well fed with a big pot of amazing chili. Thanks Barb and Judy for all the great food made with leftovers from the summer picnic.    

 

 

 

More strategic planning efforts by Tom, Ron and Ed.

 

 

Sally joins in to help with protecting the wood on our new pier.

 

 

Harold, Ed and Sally, making great progress.

 

 

By the end of the day, we got it done!  Sometime it takes a village and sometimes you have to make due with a small village.  Thanks for working extra hard!

 



 

 

Potluck and meeting followed.   Shannon joined us for good food and a good meeting.

Ed taped the game and no one spoiled it by sharing the score with him.  We were done by 6:15 pm

Ron and Tom headed off for their annual hunting trip, Judy headed off to get ready for her Mediterranean Cruise with sister Karen but promised not to leave before typing up the minutes and sending them out to everyone before she left.  

 

At the end of the day Shorehill and it's members always shine brightly!  Can't thank you all enough!



 

 

Hope to see you EVERYONE on May 3rd 2014 at the Spring Work Party.
