Architect Drawings for the Children's Classroom Expansion are done. We are taking bids on the project. On December 4, at the board meeting we will set a tentative date when construction will start, and end.

Sue Schwartz continues to make available matching funds up to $5000 total for any donations given to this project. Please call the office if you can give $1 or $1000. Thanks you.

Landscaping was done on the Amphitheater and we have several plants / trees we still need, but will wait until spring to plant. A large hemlock and golden lace juniper on our list of desireable plantings. In the spring we will also plant low grow, low mow grass seed for the area designed for people to bring blankets and chairs for seating.

The Labyrinth was written up in the Record Eagle recently. Check it out at:  www.record-eagle.com/archivesearch/local_story_313093022.html
