Water Wednesday ‘AmWins Volunteers’

Thanks so much to AmWINS Group, Inc. for helping us celebrate Water Wednesday this week! Today’s project was all about preventing erosion along our trails, so these nine ROCK STAR volunteers spent their afternoon covering a portion of the savanna trail with mulch. It was most definitely a tough project on a hot day, but they made their experience so much fun! (Also, they accomplished way more than expected!) They covered a large portion of trail that previously had exposed soil, which may have otherwise washed into Valley Water Mill Lake. Shout out to AmWINS for supporting our clean water resources, right here in Springfield! Thanks to these amazing volunteers for all of their hard work. Check out their hard work in progress, and make sure you look at the before and after shots of the trail! It looks great!
