GIVING BACK TO SHERANDO
Jonathan Zimmermann, the Administrator of the Sherando Lake Area District, and a great friend of TATC's, is asking for a little help. He wants to get Sherando ready for spring and asked if TATC members would be willing to do some spring cleaning of the campground and day use area, plus a few minor repairs. He characterized the work as being the type where many hands make for a light workload.
Jonathan has assisted TATC many times by letting us use the Administration Building and giving us access to water and indoor toilets in the offseason as well as the all-important showers. He has made our work easier and more comfortable. Perhaps, we can do the same for him.
Jonathan's priorities include -
- General grounds maintenance
- Winter Storm clean up.
- Campsite Preparations
- Installation of new trash cans, beach area
- Installation of a few new signs
- Painting
The workday is scheduled for March 18th with March 25th as the rain date. TATC members can camp anywhere, use the CC Kitchen, or stay in the Staff House. Showers will be available only at the staff house that weekend, but water will be available at all hydrants. Participants can camp in Sherando both Friday and Saturday nights.
