Monroe Park Starts the New Rotary Year with a Smile!

Ranger Fred Bounds led a crew that included Erich Schuetz, Ed Holliday, Bob O'Brien and Atlanta Metro President Warren Turner (the photographer). The Monroe Park traffic island across from the Dunwoody library was first adopted by the club at least 20 years – under former member Monroe Brock and now thrives under the leadership of Ranger Bounds. In the latest clean up, the crew pruned the Crepe Myrtles, weeded the entire island, trimmed the dead stems from the "monkey grass" garden and bagged all the debris. Finally, we spread five bails of pine straw completing the maintenance.

We hope to see you at Monroe Park in the future!
