Members of the Trails Committee enjoy the fruits of their labor after building a bench on the dam overlooking Fitzgerald Lake. The volunteers constructed three additional benches: another at the dam, one at the junction of the Marian Street Trail and Boggy Meadow Road, and one on Boggy Meadow Road near the entrance of the Loop Trail that leads to the Lathrop Community. Lathrop residents asked if BBC would build some benches to provide spots for rest and a view. The bench builders were Dave Herships, Jim Reis, Steven Harding, Alex Neubert and Michael Kesten.
