Washington, DC or Bust!

HMC Enriches the Community on October 20

What a wonderful day we had! Sixty individuals showed up for HMC’s 4th annual Prairie Restoration project at Minneopa State Park. Participants came from HMC, HSI, Friends of Minneopa, MSU Service-Learning classes, and the DNR.

Due to the previous week’s rain we were not able to gather or scatter seed this year; but we sorted bags and bags of seeds from wild flowers and grasses. The weather was gorgeous with warm temperatures and a light breeze to keep the bugs away and the waterfall was thundering in the background.

We celebrated the end of the day with water and cookies.

Thanks to everyone who worked so hard! The seeds will be used to restore areas of prairie at Minneopa State Park. It will be wonderful to be able to watch this new prairie area develop over the next few years.

On October 30th, we had our Community Enrichment Dinner and Dance to recognize our volunteers.  A costume party was part of the event!
