Volunteers Help Clear Park Area
Bruce Lloyd of the Middleport Park Association praised volunteers who worked Saturday and Sunday to clear a 400 by 200 foot area at the park. Despite incomplete cleaning due to labor shortages, those who helped cut trees and burn debris made progress. A baseball diamond is planned on the site with free dirt offered to aid filling once cleared. Next weekend is set for another volunteer session.
