Just a few of the high points from our week:
1. Great new article about the park’s oral history project. Definitely check it out:http://www.uab.edu/uabmagazine/2010/october/redmountainpark And this one mentions the park in the listing at the end(we like): http://www.readymade.com/magazine/article/place_setting
2. Our Friends are doing so much. The Friends of Red Mountain Park have another trail work day tomorrow morning, are gearing up for the first park tour of the Fall, and are going to be taking on several more park projects(like work on an old mining bridge at the No.13 mine). How do the Friends do it all? They remain passionate about building this park, and it is an energy that makes our entire staff feel great.
3. American Hiking Society Volunteer Vacation application. If we are selected, we will be privileged to host folks from around the country to build trail at Red Mountain Park. We have ideas upon ideas about the fun we will have with them all week during Spring Break 2011.
4. And what about on the property? This week there were tires. Lots of tires:
(only some of the) BEFORE
