Thank you also for Parks & Recreation for bringing out the heavy equipment and staff to remove the old chain -link fence and to dig the holes for the new posts.
· Thank you to everyone who sawed boards, dug holes, broke up brick in the holes (ugh), set the posts in concrete, attached the new boards, and did all the many other tasks it took to complete this project.
