February Workday Postponed to 2/24/18

We are postponing our workday one week to Saturday, 2/24/18, same time, same place.

There is a high prediction of rain for Thursday and Friday, and some prediction for Saturday.  We could probably do the erosion control work OK, but part of the plan was to start water sealing the exposed wood on the several culverts in the area and also on the “42 Steps.”  Water sealing wet wood with a chilly treatment isn’t recommended.  We hope this does not cause an inconvenience,  and that you can make the 2/24 date.
