West Woods Project - The West Woods Project has been ongoing since last spring and has had multiple staff and students volunteer their time and efforts to make a nice walking/running path through the woods located on the Southwest part of our campus. This past weekend saw over 25 West student volunteers work on the woods project. It started last spring with making a clear path through wooded thickets and has most recently seen several truckload of gravel laid down on the path. There is more work to do, but the pictures below show the gravel path that is half completed along with an approximate 800 pound rock that was dug out and put off to the side for a smooth path!
