Saturday: Planting the Signs plus a Watering the Garden Crisis

Details

This Saturday is "put in the quote signs day" - always fun. All the new plants for the season are in and so far the gardens look great.
However, here's the Big News. We have a huge challenge with watering those new plants. There was a break in the main line that brought water to the garden area and it's shut off because it would flood the Mary Rippon theater if left on. We have no water source on Saturdays or Wednesday afternoons. It will be probably mid-June or more before the main line is fixed.

However where there's a WILL, there's a way! (Is that a Shakespeare quote?)
We will use two hoses to bring water from the Theatre Building to the north end of the garden. The rest of the garden we will water by hand. Think Watering Bucket Brigade. The more hands the less work.
On both Wednesday afternoon at 5 p.m. and Saturday morning at 9:00, BRING WATERING CAN (large juice bottle... be inventive).
Always:
Bring water (and your morning coffee or tea if you like).
Wear shoes that protect toes, and bring gloves if you like to use them.
If you have hand tools or a preferred shovel bring; we also have a few.
