Three of the City’s permanent summer helpers have been spreading carpets of red mulch all over Morrison, IL. You may have noticed their handiwork at the
- Morrison Sports Complex playground
- Kelly Park playground
- Water Works Park playground
- base of the “Big Red Sign” behind the Police Department
- City parking lot on E. Market Street
- Sports Complex plantings.
The supplier is Gene Ryan of Ryan’s Tree Service, Inc., 23454 Emerson Road, Sterling, IL. He sells tan, brown, and black mulch, too.
On the morning of Friday, June 20, 2014, Jessica Wieneke, Kerrie Tenboer, and Danielle Stralow, shown left-to-right, continued this endeavor amid the Stella del Oro day lilies in the Robert A. Milikan Park, at the Chamber of Commerce building, 221 W. Main Street. That afternoon, one of the pocket park trees was trimmed by other members of Jim DuBois’s crew.
