Another divided day.
Myself, Dave, Paul, Matthew, Alastair, Philip, and Kayleigh were in Marsden reclaiming about 300 short stakes and guards for re-use in the Autumn.
Geoff, Jess, Tanya, Steve G and Bob were at Scammonden.

More double trouble with two crews removing old plastic tree guards at different places.
In Marsden we were myself, Sarah P., Jess, Kayleigh, Tanya, Murray, Max, Matthew, Michael, Dave, and owner Neil.
At Scammonden were Geoff, Sophie, Steve G., Steve G2., Peter and Cath
And at Marsden Neil had us scouring the field for intruder deers and foals. Click here for tune.
There were a lot of failures at the Eastern end of the Marsden site, where we had planted a large number of ash, just before ash die back hit. The rest of the site is doing really really well.

A stupidly rainy morning, but small and intrepid bands of all star volunteers did sterling work.
Myself, Kayleigh, Matthew, Michael, and landowners Neil and Sarah cleared 4 big bags of old guards from their small field in Marsden.
A similarly starry line up at Scammonden comprised Geoff, Peter, Cath, Sophie, Steve G, Steve G2, Alastair and Jared.

This Saturday AM Geoff was back removing plastic at Scammonden, with Tanya, Richard, Alastair, Jared, Lee, Sophie and Steve G2 (two Steves is one thing, we now have two Steve Gs).
We were finishing removing the plastic from Jolly's field in Marsden, myself, Dave, Matthew, Murray, and for a while, Kayleigh. Got 32 deer stakes, 50 short guards, and 25 deer guards for re-use.
