Leveling picnic area and landscaping between parking lot and Pond C

Troop 153, Fremont

 There was a picnic bench located in a seasonably troublesome spot. Whenever it rains, MSN is prevented from running it's activities there. I led a group of workers in creating a leveled site made of compacted dirt and gravel to support the bench. The site was also made on higher ground to avoid potential problems with depositing rain water. We also created an additional 3 leveled sites of compacted dirt, separating each one with wooden railroad ties. The milkweed plants that we planted adjacent to the bench site will add to aesthetic appeal and provide food for the Tule Pond's caterpillars.
