A Hurricane of a Different Sort

Twenty-nine folks from the First Baptist Church of Hurricane Youth Group out of Hurricane (pronounced "hurr-i-kuhn" ;), West Virginia, blew into town this week & created a whirlwind of volunteer action, creativity, & hard work!  The fabulous five that I worked with at the CSED community pocket park & orchard at 4817-19 Dauphine Street accomplished an amazing number of tasks in just three days!  Hats off to Philip Bradley, Mark Moore, Timothy & Courtney Hayslett, & Alyssa Tolley for their service to our community! First Baptist Church of Hurricane Youth Group 

Just look at the result of all their creativity & hard work!

Their constant, beautiful smiles as sunny as the sunflowers :) More Weeding
