Thanks to the work of Ranger M. Mac, M. Mendriski, and N. Martinez, we have a nicely refinished bench in TJ Martin Park.  It was the last of those still needing an upgrade.  Our Martin-Fontana Parks Association provided the funds to purchase the necessary materials and they provided the labor.

On Sat the 9th of May, the Santa Clara County Association of Realtors (SCCAOR), with the support of the Martin-Fontana Parks Association, and Adopt-a-Park, weeded, dead-headed roses and generally cleaned-up the Fontana Memorial Rose Garden at McAbee Road and Golden Oaks Drive.  Continuing to make this area the highlight of the commute on McAbee!  Thanks for all your hard work, volunteers.  What we do without you.

Thanks also, to our photographer, Susan Mosher for the great photos.
