RECENT NEWS: Landscaping and Mural Work Almost Done!
Mural Project
The mural at the top of College Avenue is complete! The mural was completed by our very own St. Mary’s Park resident, Matt Evans.
Median Landscaping
Over the past few months the Gardener’s Guild has been hard at work installing landscaping on the two middle medians of College Avenue. This was quite an undertaking as they first removed all of the dirt and weeds, laid down gopher wire, edging and crushed gravel. Next they planted small (but mighty) plants and irrigation. Finally, they spread mulch to keep out the weeds and help with water retention. There are a few outstanding parts to the project:
We will need to install a sign acknowledging the City support for the project.
The designs call for logs and boulders to be placed strategically to add height and interest and to serve as resting spots. This includes the flagpole area where people frequently gather. We are working hard to find donations and to raise money for installation.
Please join us and help weed the newly landscaped medians. No gardening experience is necessary. Meet at the intersection of College Avenue and Murray Avenue. Bring your gardening gloves, small weeding tool and a bottle of water. No RSVP needed, just who up!
