Construction

Hey everyone!
Just doing my duty here, but as most of you know, we got a nice start on construction last week with all the unnecessary ficus moved out, the lines chalked, a few retaining walls built, and the pond started!  This week the plan is to finish laying out the pond, finish laying out the retaining walls, and get the deck cleaned and stained.  If we get to the point of bringing mulch in, that would be cool too, but no promises.  On the topic of mulch, we have a HUGE pile of it behind the conservatory (50 yards actually).  I was out today stacking the pile up a little bit and all I can say is get ready to run some wheelbarrows! We can use the garden's tractor to load them this year, which will be a time and back saver, but even so, this is no easy task.

I think we are ahead of schedule, which is awesome, so lets not back down now!

Git 'er done!

So,

11 days!  We will finish the A-frames this Wednesday night and work out placement during the officer/reg. mtgs. this week.  I have another 50 fliers to put up around town and expect people in the club to offer to go to several different places to put them up for me since I'm only one person.  Also, I will be handing everyone 10 postcards this Wednesday to mail home, give to friends, or put up wherever they think people would see them (dorm room door, local church, wherever) so everyone is involved in getting others to come to the show.  I am working on a list of places to post to give people this Wednesday, feel free to shoot me ideas!  today and tomorrow I am sending out news releases and such about the show to get some coverage...fingers crossed that someone ends up on TV or the radio!  All of the postcards are officially (rubber banded) and mailed...wooooo!  There's probably things I'm missing but that's all I can think of at the moment.  Let the countdown begin!
