Dear Dhamma Friends,
Last week (8-10 November 2007), an enthusiastic team of old students did a tremendous job of planting about 4,000 sq ft of cow grass in the area between the mini-hall and dining hall at the centre. It looks much greener now! Our working bee volunteers were working from 7.30am till 7.00pm daily to create a beautiful lawn in that area (see pictures). The weather was fine for the three days, with a timely heavy downpour when work was completed. In addition, sprinklers were installed to ensure that the newly created lawn will be watered regularly.

Some work is also being done to improve the drainage so that there is less soil erosion, and more grass is being donated.

There is still about 25,000 sq. feet of important areas to be further planted with grass, and there are plenty of weeds to pull out. So lots of help is needed and all of you are welcome to join the "COW GRASS" team.

We plan to carry out further planting of cow grass this coming weekend (16th Nov (Fri) - 18th Nov (Sun)). Car pooling can be arranged for volunteers who need transport.

If you are interested to join the trip, please contact:

Thank you.
