I want to thank you all, my Woodland neighbors for your support to WSTCD, Woodland’s Sacred Trails Cleanup Day!!! I want to thank my entire trail committee members for their participation at our first meeting and their ideas to get this off the ground! I want to thank my passionate trail captains Mike Rickman, Karen Laflamme, and Andrew Byberg for your great leadership and excitement to execute our plan given the nature of day having had rain last night!! I want to thank all my Woodland caring and hard-working volunteers who came out today and YOU, WE ROCKED our Sacred forest with love !! We had to have picked up close to 500lbs of litter on the red, yellow, and green trails today!! Tomorrow another group of 7 volunteers will finish the Blue trail. I am so proud of you all and I am in deepest gratitude of all your help to make our Sacred forest a better cleaner place than She was when She woke up this morning! To see the children’s eager faces to clean up Mother Earth was priceless. When one raised the question, “why do people do this, litter?” Unfortunately, I don’t have the answer but I wish I did. Please don’t litter and put litter in her place. Thank you, all my neighbors! Enjoy the pictures! Some cool surprises to come!! Another trail was found, but where?
