Cemetery Cleanup After Dust Storms Leaves Few Funds
The cemetery endured minimal cleaning this year as funds ran out from planting 76 trees and watering costs while dust storms covered the grounds killing grass. Weeds were allowed to grow to protect new grass, with a plan to finish cleanup after freezing conditions. It may take several favorable years to restore the plot to its former state.
Church Floor Completed After Sanding and Sealing
The Methodist church auditorium floor was sanded and scraped, four coats of seal applied, with other rooms sealed. The new bright glossy finish replaces the former dark oily look. Services last Sunday were held in the basement due to ongoing work, performed by volunteer labor.
