A Rain Garden at the YLPA Clubhouse

by Alice Salmans

An environmental grant of $500 has been awarded to the YLPA to build a rain garden to help with the erosion that we are experiencing at the top of North Shore Drive. Information on how to build a rain garden can be found at this link, but you can follow along with our plan as we build our own. A pictorial progression along with our plan follows. If you have any questions, please call Alice Salmans at 888-5777 or click this link to send me your questions.
