Sean Merritt’s scout troup renewed the “big” island at the intersection of Stratford and Devonshire as part of their Eagle Scout project. They moved daylilies to the top of the hill to new beds. They also removed the railroad ties around three beds and shored up the railroad ties going down the hill toward Welllington, preventing erosion and car traffic. Thanks, Scouts! See pictures from their project and other island renovation in the Forest Hills Island Repair gallery.
Vandals look for opportunity, including signs of vacancy. If you are traveling during the upcoming weeks, make sure you have someone pick up your mail, newspaper, and other delivered items daily. If you've ordered something, consider using the Fedex or UPS alternate delivery features to hold the package or send it elsewhere. Look out for each other. It's the very best protection. Or get a big dog. For more tips, visit our security page.
