On Saturday, April 11th, our team joined Ryan Beltzer at Hawk Mountain. He approached us with the job of mixing concrete and laying a foundation for a gate that opens up to the Native Pant Garden at Hawk Mountain. We spent the next half of our day Concrete Mixing and shoveling it into holes in order to create a stable base for the wooden gate. We placed rebar in the upper portion of the foundation in order to further strengthen the base. During our visit there, we also came to the aid of a worker who managed to back her car into a ditch over lodge it on a large rock. Our good Samaritan attitude did not deter us from the life threatening task of removing her car from the ditch. The following attached pictures are from our experience with mixing, pouring, and reinforcing concrete.
