RFM’s Fall Workday, led by the Buildings and Grounds Committee, was a tremendous success! We accomplished everything on our long to-do list—both inside and outside the building. From removing overgrown bushes and trees (see the picture of our brush pile below), to mulching the playground, to oiling the Meetinghouse benches, to weeding and pruning, to washing the windows in the Worship Room, etc. etc. we made the building and our grounds look so much better and feel cared for. So many people lent their hands to this work. Please thank them when you see them—and be sure to make time for our spring workday so you can enjoy the camaraderie and the satisfaction of a job well done.
