BTCEB volunteers were out Thursday and Saturday this week installing pavers and rebuilding rollers and berms on Sugar City at Crockett Hills. The pavers will improve a chronically wet area that is often affected by a seep. Thank you to those that carved out a few hours to dig, wheelbarrow, and compact. It was great to meet some new people along with familiar faces. Thank you to EBRPD staff for their continued support.

Staff have started mowing and line trimming. Two Peaks was completed and Sugar City is started.
Thank you .one and for their support.
Thanks to Dave Sturgis for photos. More photos to come.
