So Far:

16 fence panels done!

Installation Days 2&3.

So, the last post was about a fence. Guess what this one will be about.... a fence! (Hey, how'd you know?!) Ha. Anyways, here is a picture of day two (last Thursday) ::

 We made it around the corner! After today's progress, we've completed 11 panels of fence, 4 right in front of Blodgett School and 7 along Tully St. We also wrote the words "Skiddy Park" on the baseball cage, which added a nice touch. We're hoping this will help people relate to the fence art more, instead of it just being a random design.

Thursday, kids from PEACE Inc. helped me out with the decorating. They were so great, and they even brought a picnic lunch (yum!). This morning a few kids from the Huntington Center came and helped, and in the afternoon, kids and counselors from the Parks&Rec program came over to see what I was doing and ended up completing a panel! Thanks guys! I like visitors, so come by tomorrow from 4-6 to add your artistic touch to the fence!

Fence Installation, Day One [[july28]]

We got four panels of fence done on Day 1 [July 28]. Further than I thought we would! Kids from the Vincent House came to help me out, and boy am I thankful for that because it's a slow process putting all those pieces in (and it was REALLY hot out too), so THANK YOU to all the kids and counselors from the Vincent House who came out today to help!!
