9th Street BMX: Mulch Day 8/28/2018

Image
We had a very successful volunteer day mulching trees at Duncan Park / 9th Street BMX thanks to the Austin Parks Foundation (APF). We moved 36 cubic yards of double grind Texas mulch to the benefit of several Live Oaks and Pecan trees. Barry Rivera, with APF, coordinated with the UT School of Engineering to register 30 student volunteers to help. Thanks to the APF, Barry and all the UT students who helped us out. After focusing on the trees, we mulched the area inside the Pump Track (kids area). This area will be our designated landscaping area in our proposed APF park improvement grant. The trails/park looks great! Thanks again for everyone's help. We look forward to It's My Park Day (IMPD) Fall 2018. We had 2 trucks loads delivered, thanks Whittlesly Landscape Supply. Thanks UT engineering students!
