Stark Park Revitalization

On a rainy Saturday the SCA Manchester crew arrived at Stark Park to lend a hand in keeping the park clean and safe for the neighboring community. The crew had an impressive turnout and was able to overhaul an entire slope of overgrown brush covered in leaves. Working diligently, the crew fought with tough rooted and thorny plants and was able to clear the slope and the sight lines. This was especially helpful to the park whose history of elicit behavior has been minimized during past years. Thanks to SCA Manchester's hard work, the sight lines opened up to deter any further elicit activity and to allow police to patrol the area more effectively.

Not only did the crew create this clearing, they collected many bags full of trash and making exciting finds at the same time! They ventured through the parks' extensive trail system collecting litter and searching out interesting fauna and wildlife when they stumbled across a giant, bright colored ball about five feet tall. So what could they possibly do with such a large ball? Have a good time and start a game with the ball? That's exactly what they did. And so the day ended with smiles and trip to a local pizzeria!
