Cadette Troop #5126 Raking Leaves to Raise Donations for Hurricane Sandy Relief Efforts
Raking 4 Relief
A picture of some girls from Potomac, MD GS Cadette Troop #5126 (and a younger GS Brownie sib) doing their "Raking 4 Relief". The girls set up this effort to rake leaves around their neighborhood to raise donations going towards relief efforts to the victims of Hurricane Sandy. Submitted by Karasik Allison
The grassy area behind the Fairway (Molehill Road) development, Chestfield, Kent. Known locally as "The Teletubbies" :-)
Photos were taken in Golden Valley north of Reno. The event is the Annual Keep Truckee Meadows Beautiful Cleanup. There were six from the BLM who participated. Leon Thomas, Mike Cook, Rachel Crews, George Paiva, Gary Gumienny, and myself. I took the photos.

Heading to the sand tomorrow and I always wondered what it would be like to have my own custom rake. We shall see ....
Rake: a reference to our marketting skills.
Ponytail theif: FB wants VB's long, straight ponytails, and wouldn't mind mine, either.
Hotly: was meant to be holy but I accidently added a cross.
Baby fouls: a reference to Tim's nephew's favorite animals. We were trying to look sweet, but I couldn't manage it.
It was brisk, but not windy out, so the kids helped rake the leaves. Cathy Rae snagged a beret for this outfit - because she says she has to do her 'pink thing'. Rudi was cozy in velour leggings and the first (and favorite) Holiday sweater. Jeff wore his new hat for the first time along with his sweatshirt. Mr. Bear thought it was quite balmy in his fur coat, and only got lost in the leaves twice. Cinnamon pumpkin buns and some hot sweet tea tasted fantastic after that.
"Here are fruits, flowers, leaves
and branches, And here is my heart
which beats only for you."

• High-strength, box-type beams and spring-steel tines handle rocks, dirt,
and sand

right, or center
• One-inch tine spacing provides superior material collection for a smooth, even grade

This is my (unfinished) contribution for the rose & rake challenge. The roses are made of a succulent plant in my garden, with metal clay, and the leaves are metal clay as well. Rest is copper/SS sheet.
After this a whole bunch more fell and you can hardly tell I raked. *pout* I only did a small bit of yard. Shaun did more later, but it's all been fallen on again.
Heaping the leaves into the street for the city leaf-collection truck, which will come around in a day or two.
