Work Party = Success!

Next time you drive into Grand Firs, take a peek and admire how nice and clean our entrance looks! Several neighbors gathered today and removed the large broken sign as well as the six flag poles at the entrance. I think everyone was in agreement that the sign was just too dangerous to stay up any longer (especially considering that Grand Firs has no insurance) and that the worn, faded flags were an eyesore. Neighbors inspected the flood lights and gate hinges to figure out what needs to be purchased so we can fix these items. (And I'm terrible with names.. I wish I had taken better notes to I could give credit to the proper people).

Personally, the part that had me most excited was seeing how many kids/teens showed up to help! They raked leaves and picked up trash, and left the entrance looking pretty nice. Kids, thank you for the hard work and for taking pride in your neighborhood. We all appreciate it :)

The sign and flag poles were nicely stacked behind the Sterling trailer.

We'd like to set up another date to finish removing the flag poles along the fence. If you live in one of the homes that backs up to 86th, the crew will need access to the backyard for a few minutes. Once a date is set, we'll pass it along. Thanks for your cooperation.

So once again, if you were at the work party today, thank you so much! If you weren't able to make it, maybe we will see you next time!
