Christopher Preshong is planning on having another workday at Bancroft on Friday the 7th at 4pm, until it gets dark. We will be digging holes and concreting benches into the ground. If you have shovels and posthole diggers to bring, that would be great. I will provide snacks and drinks. If you are available to come and help, please let me know so I can plan accordingly! If you have any questions please email me at cjpreshong@gmail.com.
