Volunteers Help Plant the Beds on Main Street

Eyes on Main Street - June 20th, 2014

Volunteers Help Plant the Beds on Main Street

The planting beds are planted!!! A group of volunteers coordinated by Steve Kemp and the parks commission prepped and planted all planting beds along Main Street on Monday, June 16! There was a great turnout with ages from infant to retired. 

Volunteers were to arrive at 3:30 but it was decided that the beds needed some major prepping, so several volunteers came early to spade, till, and rake each bed before finally ready for planting. There were even some volunteers who helped because they saw us working. Trees had already been planted by the landscape crew, so all that was left were the plants and mulch.

Here is a list of volunteers in random order: Karen Cornella and son Oliver, Jamie Rask and children Ethan, Addison, and Kinley, Sharon Hanson, Marge Storlie, Joycelyn Rostad, Ross Otterness, Kathy Taylor, Robert Vogel, Alisha Solum, Erin Oefstedahl, Renee Eiken and grandson Caleb, Linda Nerstad Kemp, Steve Kemp, Lee Hoekstra, Fordyce and Marge Brevig, Paul Morken, Saundra Solum, Tim Hruska our city engineer from WHKS, and Scott Pass from MnDOT. Also Mark Dokken helped in the bed outside his office for a few minutes and Myron Hirsch helped for a few minutes when he came out of Docs.

Thank you so much to all of you for your help!!! Check out some of the great photos below.
