News from the Friends of Reinstein

About 40 people enjoyed a beautiful summer evening at the annual volunteer picnic. Bill Boehm received the Al Schick Volunteer Appreciation Award for his outstanding service to Reinstein Woods. Bill has been volunteering with Reinstein Woods almost since the program began, serving in a variety of capacities, including greeter, board member, special events volunteer, and currently as our bottle and can recycler!

Stefanie Ecker received the Peter M. Losi Appreciation Award for her service to Friends of Reinstein Woods. Stefanie started as a Trail Tuesdays volunteer but quickly expanded her service to include serving on the Friends of Reinstein board of directors and chairing the fundraising committee. She is constantly inviting people to visit the woods and has been a great champion for Friends of Reinstein Woods.

In addition to these awards, members of Cub Scout Pack 592 were recognized for their first-place finish in the Garlic Mustard Challenge.  The Cub Scout Pack has participated in the Garlic Mustard Challenge every year since it was started here, coming in fourth two years ago, second place last year, and finally first place this year! We are grateful to these young men and their parents for their service.

Congratulations to all the award winners!
