Another Victory Garden Update

Harrison Wilson June 29th, 2009

If you haven’t been out to see the progress of the victory garden, make sure you set aside some time to do so. The plants are pretty much exploding in terms of their growth. There is also a nice sign marking the area.

Congratulations on all the progress thus far to those maintaining and working on the garden!

Dive-In Movie and Progress Meeting

Harrison Wilson June 25th, 2009

On Tuesday June 23 all available WooCorps members were asked to gather to discuss where the program has come and where it will be going in the coming months. The energy was noticeably high, and door prizes were handed out that included gift certificates to Wooster area restaurants.

On Saturday June 20, many WooCorps members also gathered to watch the classic film, “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” in the PEC Pool at night. It was great to see a large turnout, and I managed to grab some photos of the event (as well as the meeting). Enjoy!
