Home Depot & other good news

Hello everyone,

Great news! Ron's application for $1,000 from the Shell Community Service fund has been approved! Shell employees who put in more than 48 volunteer hoursa year with a hon-profit can apply every year for a grant of up to $1,000. He had asked for funds to cover the cost of fence building materials. This will go a long way to cover the cost of the fence posts and cement.

Trevor Morrison, the store manager for the Home Depot store in Marlborough called and we have Wednesday, July 29th in the morning (8:00am) as the time for the building for the plots. He estimates he'll have 9-12 people from 3 different stores coming out to help build the 20 plots. He will do a mock-up at his store so he can get a good time estimate on how long it takes to put one together. He said he can also bring extra wheelbarrows to help us get the soil in the plots.
