Apr. 30 2023 Park Clean-up

Hi all. It's out favourite time of the year once again. Time for our annual park clean-up. The weather has not co-operated at all with us this year. Cold, then warmed up really fast. So, bring your rubber boots, gloves, a shovel and a wagon if you have one and lets get it done! Start at the clubhouse and fan out. The most important part, a good attitude!
Garbage Bags will be provided and water as well.
Irene will be taking care of the table at the clubhouse and selling our LMPCG pins ($3.00 each) if you are interested.
Stay as long as you wish, but don't over do yourselves.
Hopefully it will be a nice days. Please check back here for any changes.
