Meadow seeding We are going to seed the new pollinator meadow at Shenandoah River State Park and you are all invited to help. Bring your spouses, significant others, grandchildren, grandparents, club members, friends, and even neighbors. We are hand seeding so you won’t need tools, but maybe wear your boots and some bug spray. Cameras are optional. No entry fee. We are still on in light rain. If it’s raining heavily we will try to go the 18th 10 AM, Monday, September 17 at the meadow. Please park along the Tube Exit Campfire Circle road and not along the paved road. The Tube Exit is reached by turning left off the entry road onto Overnight Road. Turn right on the gravel road marked “Authorized Use Only” which is immediately just past the RV Campground. Then turn right again. It’s a short walk to the meadow. You need to be a part of this memorable event! See you Monday, September 17 at 10 AM.

The Jimmy Viars trainee wired the field in both as well, in 1:57 4/5 and 1:58 2/5 respectively, crossing by two over FF Bigshow in the first and by one over BP Burnmer in the latter. In Wednesday’s kickoff card, Perry scored with B Blissful twice, and with Loose Rocket and Midnight Dragon once.
