Amador County – Adam Dalton of the Jackson Rancheria Band of Miwuk Indians gave his weekly report on the field and park restoration project Wednesday, saying that “excitement perseveres in Volcano this week.”

The small town somehow seems larger now as volunteers clear overgrown landscape and trim details with fresh new paint. Dalton said the “ongoing support of Volcano’s local community has become a catalyst that is helping the project advance further within town. New details emerging include a new rock garden patio behind the Café and recycling of the old tree burl on Main Street as it becomes the vision of a local chainsaw artist.”

Dalton said: “We are also personally assisting a fellow project partner Sharon Lungren with a few renovations as she prepares for the reopening of the St. George Hotel. Volcano is a project that continues to grow successfully thanks to volunteer efforts and donor contributions.

Once renovations are complete within Volcano; The Amador County Park Restoration crew will begin renovation on its third project, with the exact location yet to be determined.

Dalton again asked people to join and help renovate park and recreation areas of communities. He said: “Summer is approaching and provides the perfect opportunity to engage with your children in learning the value of community outreach. Contact the Project at (209)223-8405.
