The lagoon was dredged and they said it was in good condition. Chris and Jamie fixed the pump at the lagoon. We appreciated the hard work as it saved us a lot of money.
Chris will look at the 4-wheel drive in the truck. It is not working properly.
Mike and Zach will finish taking down the old shelter house at the ballpark and make sure it is stable. We are still looking to purchase new playground equipment for the ballpark.
