A hearty and sincere thank you to our Fremont community and others who took time out of their busy schedules to participate in the annual John C. Fremont Park clean-up!

Around fifty hard-working souls, littles included, joined the ranks; raking up mountains of pine cones, leaves, tumble-weeds, holly-hock stocks, branches and trash. The buzzing of lawn trimming tools could be heard as the Park received a well-groomed look, and the sweeping of the tennis/basket-ball/pickle-ball court will enable balls to bounce as intended. The crew painstakingly cut down rows of very hearty lilac bushes and fallen branches were dragged to the dumpster, graciously provided by our Wayne County Landfill. Removal of the beloved bushes will enable installment of a new fence in the, hopefully, near future, and speaking of fencing, thank you to Bob Flugrad, who days before, single-handedly, demolished and removed the old rickety, fallen-down wood fence. We must also add a word of thanks to “Mariah,” who held its gusts until all was complete.

If a full dumpster is a sign of the work put in, then we rest accomplished. We are truly grateful for our Park and appreciate the work that went into its creation, as well as those who have maintained it through the years!

Most gratefully,

Camp Geyser, Daughters of Utah Pioneers
