On a sunny Sunday morning, eight GoodGymers came out braving the cold and earlier rainy weather to help re-landscape Alberta Communal Garden as Peter had planned for us to take up a row of concrete slabs as the path was too wide and they needed space of the trees to grow.
In two different teams, we got a system going of using crowbars and shovels to lift up the concrete slabs before another two people came along to pick them up and take them to the trolley where Elizabeth, Linda and Sam gently put them in piles away from the task and stored to one side for another task in the future.
After 45 minutes, we were done with the main task as we took out 55 slabs from the first row. Thus, with the last 15 minutes we filled in the gaps with mulch and anything from nearby.
