Volunteer Round- Up, Neenach

 

Volunteers continued clean up efforts today in Neenach after yesterday's control burn at Holiday Lake. Volunteers used a tractor to improve the walking trail, assisted with trash removal and cleaning up logs and debris not consumed by fire. Hopefully new grasses will start to sprout rapidly in the burn area.

 

Picnic tables will be placed around the lake now that burning has been completed. A few new trees will be planted around the tables to offer shade. Volunteers meet once a week to pick up trash and help clean up the community doing various community projects. Thanks to every one's hard work the lake is looking great.
