Saturday, March 27, at Ault Park — the largest number of volunteers for this event in the past 10 years, according to Tokiko Freeman, event organizer and longtime friend of the JASGC. A number of JASGC and JACL (Japanese-American Citizens League) members attended, as well as a large group of student volunteers from the University of Cincinnati. “This was the first time I can recall having so many student volunteers at one time,” said Anne Golden, Executive Director of the JASGC. “We certainly appreciated the students, and everyone who attended.”[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Post Body” _builder_version=”4.3.4″ custom_padding=”36px||0px||false|false” locked=”off”][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ use_custom_gutter=”on” make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.9.1″ z_index=”11″ custom_padding=”0px||0px|||”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.9.1″][et_pb_image src=”https://jasgc.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/JASGC-9.jpg” title_text=”JASGC 9″ _builder_version=”4.9.1″ _module_preset=”default”][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.3.4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.1″ text_font=”Quicksand||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”16px” text_letter_spacing=”1px”]As in previous years, the Cincinnati Park Board provided mulch, wood chips, wheelbarrows, and hand tools, and arranged for several staff members to help guide the volunteers and assist with the project.
