WORK SESSION A - Friday, May 24, 2013
Posted: Fri May 24, 2013 7:54 pmIt's been a great starting Work Session! The thirty-nine volunteers for Work Session A have worked hard and enjoyed the friendship of the last week. Many of them will be staying for Work Session B which will start Monday, May 27. It may be Memorial Day, but we can guarantee that the Friends' volunteers will be ready to go to work early that day, picking up where Session A volunteers left off!

- Team Leader Clyde Putnam (Cinder Bear gondola) holds wrench on the top of a bolt. Marshall Smith has re-threaded the bolt with a die threader.
- Marshall Smith talks to a German couple who wanted to know who all of the workers were? They probably asked because of the age of the Friends' group members! Tim Bristow is in the background.
- Marshall Smith airs up a front tire on the Friends' Kubota tractor. Spero Bettalico waits to return the compressor to the Friends' Paint Car.
