A group of neighborhood volunteers came out early this morning to plant flowers on at West Penn Park.  The flowers provide a welcome splash of color at Brereton and 30th streets.

Valentina (right) will be tending the flower beds through the spring and summer.  Dead-heading a 40-foot plot of marigolds is no small task!

Many thanks to all the volunteers who helped to make this spot so bright and welcoming.  And extra thanks to the firefighters from Station 8, who said they came because one of their comrades is from Polish Hill, but couldn’t make it today.  You all helped make Polish Hill a prettier place, and the neighborhood appreciates your work!
