THANK YOU TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE
LANDSCAPE/BEAUTIFICATION COMMITTEE!
On Friday, May 9th, the Landscape and Beautification Committee and a few other volunteers dedicated several hours to planting flowers around the West entrance sign and mailbox structure. The committee’s plan for August is to expand the floral display by planting perennial irises, daffodils, and crocuses at the East entrance, where the former mailboxes were situated.
We extend our gratitude to the Beautification Committee for their invaluable contributions to enhancing the visual appeal of Los Ranchitos. We recognize and appreciate their unwavering initiative and dedication.
