SHERWOOD FOREST CRIER OCTOBER 9, 2008 USC Belser Arboretum Work Days This Weekend Pat DeCoursey has put out a call for help for this coming weekend (October 11 and 12) to raise the roof on the new permanent outdoor classroom in the Arboretum. She says she needs 4 or 5 strong people to help lift roof trusses around midday on Saturday, and then some roofers for later Saturday or Sunday. This is "Habitat"-type work - no real skills needed, just some willingness and strength. The roof raising shouldn't take long and that is the most critical need. Please pass the word and see if we can get a good crew. This is an exciting step forward in the Arboretum! Please contact Valerie Marcil (738-0682, 331-1138, vallg29205@gmail.com) for more information. The plan is for around noon on Saturday, but if you want to be on stand-by and wait for a call, that would be fine, too. Please let me know and give me phone numbers where you can be reached. If I don't hear from you, you may get a call from me! SFNA Halloween Picnic October 31 The goblins are haunting The monsters will mash, It's time to get ready for Our neighborhood Halloween Bash!
