Update: Talked to the Forest Service today. Currently they are still holding the Work Day. The agenda will most likely focus on trash pick up. They will make a final decision on Friday afternoon. If I can, due to power outages and what not, I will post the answer. If you would like to cantact them directly, they know we have committed to support the work day, you can call them at 1.910.576.6391. Thanks, Dan Old North State | ||
