On Wednesday, March 18 - in the middle of Spring Break - nearly a dozen youth volunteers gathered at one of St. George City's greenhouses (the one at Vernon Worthen Park) to plant seedlings in little cups like those you probably remember from kindergarten when you learned "the roots grow down and the plant grows up!" The weather was a balmy 72 degrees and Ryan Kammerer from the city's Leisure Services Division was on hand to share his knowledge of plant names and other details. Everyone had the

chance to get their hands in the dirt - all in preparation for Global Youth Service Day on Saturday, April 25 when the plants will have matured sufficiently to be planted at the 2-acre Rotary SK8 Park. Things are moving a lot slower than was first anticipated, but we have great partners and plenty of enthusiam . . . and this just the beginning with lots more service in the future at this location. Come on out and join us!!!
