Super Sunday Volunteer Crew

Wow! We’re developing quite a team on Sundays. The energy on Sundays is great as several people work together to whip the sanctuary into shape. We catch up on a little more cleanup each week.

Today, TREES volunteers:
  • Cleaned up ALL fields and paddocks (as in every single one)
  • Cleaned out all run-in sheds
  • Scrubbed and refilled water tanks
  • Scrubbed feed tubs
  • Took down fans and old fly strips
  • Replaced burned out light bulbs
  • Stripped and rebedded Butternut & Henry’s stalls
  • Bedded Kelley’s shed
  • Replaced several boards in older sections of fence
  • Cleaned up the scrap wood left after storage shed construction
  • Fluffed several geezers’ winter coats
  • Put away most of Saturday’s load of donated supplies

And all before 1PM.
Then we discussed several admin and fundraising ideas – keep ‘em comin’!

You guys are great. “Thank you” doesn’t seem like enough.

(Now to develop several more teams that work this well together -- both at the farm and "behind the scenes.")
