Wednesday Volunteers 11/23/11

I think it's clear that people don't want to crawl below the gazebo and dig dirt for hours, so tomorrow we'll try something new.
I could really use a couple of volunteers to help me try to wash the dirt out from under the gazebo tomorrow, beginning at around 10 am.
First we bulldoze a 6'X6'X2' pit at the entrance to the glider storage area. Next we'll use a high pressure water hose to flush the mud and stones out into the pit where the high volume mud pump transports the mud and water through a discharge hose and across the grass and into the river bed.
The small rocks and stones that wash into the pit are then removed with the skip loader.
We know it's a lot easier because we've tried it. We just need to see if it's efficient enough to make the job much faster.
Email me tonight and let me know if you're coming so I can rent a 3" suction hose for the hydraulic pump. I'm at windsports@earthlink.net
