We had about 60 volunteers broken into two groups between the two parks. They were all members of Florida Tech Residence Life. I used to serve in that department when I was on campus their, for seven years actually. Great memories. I recognized a few people still. I wrote them a thank you letter. See what you think.

There is a now a new vegetative buffer of Sand Cordgrasses two rows deep along the central shoreline of Banana River Park and three rows deep along the central shoreline of Manatee Sanctuary Park. When these get fully established I think they will look very nice. Fortunately, they are much taller than the original ones I had done earlier in the year, so it would be very difficult for someone not to realize they are plants and not regular sod. Regardless, I’ll get with Dave Coulter to ensure the lawn care company is fully aware they are there and not to disturb them as best as possible. It rained already in Cape Canaveral so they were watered, with much more on the way this weekend. I’ll be back out there tomorrow morning to take some better photos. The event ended around 5:30 pm so I didn’t have all that much time to take some nice wide shots. All tools and supplies are back where they need to be at IM and City Hall. I let Dave Coulter know as well already. Also, the volunteers picked up a few trash bags worth of trash along the shoreline of both parks and under the boardwalk at Manatee. We disposed of the trash in the receptacles at each park, as well as the plant pots. Thank you for your support with this project.
