It’s in the bag
Sand bag filling party
May 23, 2011
A big crew of 43 volunteers turned out in Pinedale on Saturday, May 21st across from the Pinedale Ambulance Barn. The purpose was to help the Sublette Emergency Management fill sand bags in preparation for potential flooding around the Upper Green River Valley this spring. The team had hoped to use a sand bag filling machine, but were unable to get it working properly, so they resorted to good ole’ manual labor.
