(Exit 24). If you would rather go in your own car, meet me at the AT parking lot on RTE 225 at around 9:00. We will be doing lopper work, chainsaw work, weed trimming, and other items requiring repair. I would like two chain sawyers if possible. I have one saw and hopefully someone from the club would have one. I can bring three weed trimmers and if others have their own please bring them. I will supply the oil and gas as needed. If you are coming or planning to come please let me know as soon as possible so I can plan accordingly. I may be limited to the amount work I can do, but hopefully I will be there. Bring lunch, water, long pants, long sleeve shirts, gloves, and anything else you think necessary. I will provide safety glasses as needed, but bring your own if you have them I also have three sets of hearing protection. Contact Tom at , 717-825-6712 (cell) or 717-764-6822 (home). Any questions please advise.
