Our pile of mulch.

Our pile of mulch.

Today we met at Flagstaff Park at 9am as per usual, ready to continue with the mulch removal job we had started earlier in the week. We waited for a shipment of tools for completing our task for about 20 minutes (time used to complain about the park’s crabgrass, which Team Greensense decided was far inferior to Kentucky Bluegrass), at which point we realized that the tools were not actually set to arrive until 11:00. We used the hour-and-a-half before the tools’ arrival time to begin planning our presentation/proposal (scheduled for next Thursday). The team discussed ideas for an energy saving contest between the Area 4 and Frisoli Youth Centers, and for a series of posters that would be put up in the youth centers to remind kids to turn off lights and save energy in general. At 11:00 we reconvened at Flagstaff and worked for the duration of the day on removing harmful mulch and roots from the trees in the park.
