picking up trash in the neighborhoods (this is Ed & his mom Vi as we walked some of the neighborhoods with trash bags),
repainting and fixing up the grooms' showers and restrooms on the backside of the racetrack, 
and cleaning up and painting the race track chapel. 
We also worked in force to create a family park down by the river in Ruidoso Downs. Some of those projects were: mulching a lot of the brush to make a walking trail along the upper perimeter of the park area
Of course, get this many preachers & administrators together and someone's always on the phone.
The community went together and bought 9 concrete picnic tables that cost $900 each...trouble was, they had to be assembled which was quite a project in itself, but at least they're sturdy. Here's the before, during, and after picture of the tables.
We all got to try out the tables since the Catholic Church folks brought grills and cooked hamburgers and hot dogs for all the workers at the park.
Another one of the nice features of the park being made is the walking path that goes around the perimeter of the park down by the river which Ed said is really, really cold.
Another cool thing that is happening is the free BBQ for the community tonight at the race track. A few local business owners have trailers that they use to cook with, so they cooked lots and lots of food which will be served for free to whoever shows up tonight. Last WATS UP we served about 750 people and are expecting more tonight. 
There will also be a free concert at the track, and then tomorrow lots of churches are meeting at 11 a.m. at the track for a combined worship service.

A local photographer even came to take pictures of all the projects and workers, so I took a picture of him.
