GRIP Team meets with Soil Specialist Stacie Villareal
Shown are GRIP Team members Michael H., Stacie, Gordon and Kurt. Not shown are Jay, Manolo, and Ferenc.
The GHSA Runway Improvement Plan Team lead by Gordon Wingate continues to explore measures we can take to prevent the formation of crevasses during long dry spell conditions like the one we experienced last year. The Team reviewed the soil sample results and prepared many questions Stacie was able to answer.
Be careful at the South Side of the runway and stay clear of the ditch areas.
Thanks to Susan's idea our garden starts looking beautiful....!
Bring some more white stones please to make it perfect……! Thanks, to those who already did! Enjoy your time at our clubhouse with garden view.
That rusty railing could use some white paint, too.
