#Southwest Connector

[michaelgruberfan]

Tiny interview Michael and Tony did for the Southwest Connector in order to help promote Jersey Boys! (X) (Published Wednesday, May 17, 2023) It's a relatively short read and if you've seen next to any recent Gruber interviews you'll know this stuff anyways however to get confirmation that Tony DID work in New York for a bit was cool (I wasn't certain about it however I was thinking he might of cause of blah blah) Article below the cut:

By Tesha M. Christensen

Two Armatage residents are wrapping up a run in “The Prom” at the Chanhassen Dinner Theater, and looking ahead to “Jersey Boys.” Spouses Tony Vierling and Michael Gruber actually met at the Chanhassen Dinner Theater. It was 2007 and they were both in the world premiere of Irving Berlin’s “Easter Parade.” “I was brought in from New York City to play Don Hewes and Tony was in the company. We became great friends during the run of the show, and our relationship progressed from there,” recalled Gruber. “It was one of those decisions that really did change the course of my life.” Vierling added, “We’ve been together 16 years and married for nine years. We moved back to Minneapolis, to the Armatage neighborhood, in 2010 after having been working in New York and being on tour.”

What drew you to acting? Gruber: I remember putting on plays for my second grade class. My teacher must have been very open minded. I can’t remember what they were about, but I do remember being fairly extroverted – which is funny because I’m quite an introvert in my adult life. But nevertheless, I do love being a part of stories that can affect an audience in a positive way. Vierling: I started acting at the age of eight. I have always been a bit dramatic! Putting on plays in my basement, with my best friend in his garage, at the church, anywhere I could! I started actually acting in a local theatre in Des Moines, Iowa, as well as doing school plays. Did commercials and voice over work as a kid and teenager. I have always loved the group dynamic of theatre, and the rapport that is shared with the audience.

What is exciting about this production? Gruber: I am in the ensemble so I get to play several different characters. That is always delightful because I have much broader leeway to create something personal and fun. I also understudy one of the principals, Trent Oliver, and due to COVID-19 in the company, I had to learn the role of the high school principal, Tom Hawkins, in two days and perform it for three performances until the actor playing the role could return to the production. That was a wonderful challenge. Vierling: I play several smaller characters in this show. All of them are very silly, which is great fun. What excites me about this show is the young people in our cast. They are all so talented; it’s a very energetic show for them! I really love watching their work every night! As far as my roles and growth in this show, every job is a learning experience. Since my parts are smaller, I am more of a support this time. Creating characters and filling scenes with ideas that other actors can play against adds texture to the show, making it a richer experience for us all.

What is it like to perform with your significant other? Vierling: It is a real joy to work with my spouse every night. We have been so lucky to be able to consistently work together. Being on a performance schedule is challenging and can be pretty difficult if one of the couple is not home every night. It takes another actor to understand the demands of the job. Gruber: It is great to be able to share the stage with Tony. We have had the opportunity to play opposite each other in “Singin’ in the Rain” as Don and Cosmo at the Ordway, in “Holiday Inn” as Jim and Ted, and “The Music Man” as Harold and Marcellus.

What’s next? Gruber: We both will be in the company of Jersey Boys. I’m cast as Gyp Decarlo and Tony will play Joe Pesci. Vierling: We start rehearsals in a couple of weeks and open in mid June. Should be a very fun show. Minneapolis has such a rich a diverse theatre community. The talent here is amazing, and we are so lucky to have so many amazing theatres to showcase all of that talent. Get out and support local theatre!

helicopter crash fic when? 🥹💕 (can we have a snippet pls?)

soon...hopefully soon (i say through tears).

Evan’s face looks nearly ashen now, the dark blood drying caked on and cracked over his temple and cheek looks truly gruesome in the muted light of the wildfires. Tommy doesn’t know what his own face looks like, but he bets it’s probably not much prettier looking.  “Alright, kid— we gotta get a move on.” Tommy squats down, gets Evan’s good arm slung over his shoulder. “We don’t wanna miss our flight— it’s a real bitch trying to find a connector.”  Evan’s head lolls against his arm, a grim attempt at a smile stretching across his too pale lips.  “Still…better than…southwest.” Evan’s voice is thin, his words stilted with his labored breathing. There’s a gasping wheeze laced through each inhale and it makes Tommy’s blood run cold.  Tommy doesn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. He manages a watery huff of breath before adjusting his grip and hauling Evan up into a standing position. Evan’s knees buckle once, nearly dragging the both of them back down to square one, but he regains his footing, straightening back up. He’s still leaning heavily into Tommy’s side, and he knows that without the support there’s no way Evan would be standing on his own. But he’s vertical, and that’s all that matters right now.

Why is Atlantis not perfectly radially symmetrical? The city radiates out in 6 directions and each one is like a peninsula, except 2 of them have a connector- is it supposed to be a harbor? I always wondered, thought maybe you might know ☺️

Ooooh I see what you mean! It is indeed a harbor or at least an enclosed area. Although there seems to be no access to the open ocean, so it'd have to be spaceships only. Sea vessels would dock in other places. Here on the blueprints it's in the lower left corner between the Southwest and South Piers, and it's labeled "docking wharf":

I'm not sure that's where the Daedalus lands, I'd have to check it—but good observation! You can also see it in this screenshot, same position.

I maintain a bike map for northwest King County and very southwest Snohomish County called the Greater Northshore Bike Connector Map.

I also make a MEGAMAP that adds all the way down to the southern tip of Lake Washington.

It's a Creative Commons project and is downloadable at full print resolution by anyone, and I just posted another update.

The Amputated Franken-Plus

Last year I revived an old Mac Plus that had been destructively robbed for parts over the years. I added sockets for the chips that had been removed, gave it a new power supply, added my SE-VGA card for video, and bodged a few broken traces. But there still remained the most heinously destructive part removal that had been committed against this poor board ...

Long before I had mastery of a soldering iron, and lacking the proper tools for desoldering components successfully, I had a project where I needed n 8-pin mini DIN connector. I had this non-functional Mac Plus board gathering dust so I decided to remove one of its connectors. With a knife. By cutting the board around the connector.

I was young ...

Obviously, there's no repairing that. The board has a permanent chunk removed from it.

However, I find myself wanting to be able to use those serial ports now that I have the rest of the board running. There are lots of fun things to use them for, like LocalTalk networking, printers, zTerm, etc.

So I set out to build a breakout board to add the connectors for these serial ports back to the board. I started by digging up datasheets for the RS-422 & RS-232 transceivers Apple used, as well as schematics for the Plus and similar era Macs so I could trace out how the connectors were originally wired. It turns out all of the signals for both ports are routed to some RC filters in a straight line at the back of the board. This made it fairly easy to solder a ribbon cable to the filter pins on the back side of the board.

I've come to like ribbon cables; they're easy to work with. I can just crimp an IDC connector on one end and attach them to some pin headers. The breakout board itself is just some generic protoboard, and has said pin headers and two female 8-pin mini-DIN connectors.

It's not ideal. The ribbon cable wires are fragile and cold easily be pulled off the motherboard. But hopefully this will restore the last lost functionally for this poor tortured Mac Plus motherboard.

I plan to include the Franken-Plus in my exhibit for VCF Southwest in Richardson, Texas this weekend (23-25 June 2023). If you're in the area, definitely stop by; it's shaping up to be a great show.

Where Did the Kingfield Neighborhood Really Get Its Name?

In 1958 the city of Minneapolis developed a plan for 9 main “Communities” (the downtown area was originally excluded from the community plan). Ideal communities were to be composed of several “neighborhoods” and were to serve a variety of land uses—residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, and institutional. Today the city of Minneapolis has 83 residential neighborhoods—from Armatage to Windom Park. But where did these neighborhoods get their names? Many were named for schools and parks.

Kingfield Neighborhood is in the Southwest Community. It’s bound by 36th St. W on the north, 35W on the east, 46th St. W on the south, and Lyndale Ave. on the west. Recently, a patron inquired about the origin of the Kingfield neighborhood name. Majority of sources say the neighborhood was named after Colonel William S. King, including the Kingfield Neighborhood Association website and this recent article in the Southwest Connector. William S. King (1828-1900) was a congressman, journalist, and cattle breeder, who was involved with railroads, the city’s first streetcar rails, development of the Park Board, and more. King was a partial owner of the nearby Lyndale Farmstead—it would make sense that Kingfield Neighborhood was named after this King. But a little digging in Special Collections shows strong evidence that it’s a different King.

When the communities and neighborhoods were outlined in 1958, Kingfield neighborhood was originally named “Nicollet Field Neighborhood”, named after the park which occupies a large chunk of the neighborhood’s east side. In 1968, after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., the park was renamed Martin Luther King Park, which was often referred to in newspapers as “King Field” (see below). While I haven’t uncovered any official city records approving the neighborhood’s name change, it seems pretty obvious that Kingfield neighborhood was in fact named after the newly renamed park, in honor of Dr. King, the civil rights leader, not William S. King.

When and how it became one word, “Kingfield,” is another question. “Kingfield Neighborhood” as one word first appears in the newspaper in 1989. In 1991 it’s often hyphenated “King-Field Neighborhood”, and even today you see both King Field and Kingfield used.

Above is a 1961 map that outlines the Minneapolis communities and neighborhoods and shows Nicollet Field, next to a 1976 map, showing the change to King Field. Check out photos of the Kingfield neighborhood in the Hennepin County Library Digital Collections

Introducing the Nuvem subsea cable

Google are introducing Nuvem today, a new transatlantic submarine cable system that will link Portugal, Bermuda, and America.

Nuvem Submarine Cable information

Nuvem, which takes its name from the Portuguese term for “cloud,” will strengthen network resilience across the Atlantic and support the expansion of digital service demand. The new cable channel will increase the variety of international routes and aid in the construction of ICT infrastructure across the concerned continents and nations.

Studies demonstrate the improvements in productivity, investment, and commerce that a subsea cable may bring to a nation. Societies may continue to modernize with greater internet affordability and availability; individuals can gain information and skills that lead to new employment possibilities, while companies and governments can become more productive due to digital transformation. The landing points for Nuvem have embraced this potential and urgency and are quickly becoming centers for global connection.

The Bermudan government has made major efforts in recent years to draw investment in undersea cable infrastructure and establish a digital Atlantic center, including establishing new laws to establish cable corridors and simplify permits. The first cable to link Bermuda and Europe will be Nuvem, which will also be the first cable to land in this challenging area.

Walter Roban, Bermuda’s Deputy Premier and Minister of Home Affairs, stated, “Bermuda has long been committed to the submarine cable market, and we welcome the Nuvem cable to our fast-growing digital Atlantic hub.” Bermuda is excited to collaborate with Google on its cable project and to develop a larger cooperation to maximize the advantages of the investment in digital infrastructure.

“The Bermuda Business Development Agency (BDA) welcomes the announcement by Google that Bermuda will be the home of a new transatlantic cable on the path to becoming a digital hub of the Atlantic,” said David Hart, CEO of the Bermuda Business Development Agency. The Bermuda Development Authority (BDA) has long argued that Bermuda’s geographic location makes it a prime landing and connector site for underwater cables connecting the Americas, Europe, and Africa.

We are thrilled that our efforts have been successful. Since undersea cable networks carry around 95% of the world’s communications, Bermuda’s function as an international data-transit switch will boost network redundancy and resilience for nations on both sides of the Atlantic for decades to come.

Portugal has similarly developed into a port for subsea cables due to its favorable geographic position on the southwest coast of continental Europe as well as the nation’s emphasis on improving the digital economy’s infrastructure. Nuvem is the most recent addition to Portugal’s underwater cable network, which also includes Equiano, the newly finished system that links Portugal with Togo, Nigeria, Namibia, South Africa, and St. Helena. Nuvem has ambitions to land in Portugal.

“Google’s investment reflects our goal of making Portugal a vibrant connectivity hub for Europe with strong ties to other continents, which is reflected in our vision for Portugal in the telecom and data industries. The Portuguese Government views this investment as very essential, and the excellent coordination and communication between the ministry, the Portuguese entities, and Google made it possible, according to Joo Galamba, Portugal’s Minister of Infrastructure.

Our objective is to turn these information highways into investment magnets for cutting-edge technological industries, accelerating the country’s successful digital transformation. Our attempts to attract these kinds of investments have been driven by this aim in recent months, which has driven us to improve our communication infrastructures and create a clear industry roadmap.

“He applaud Google on the growth of their transatlantic submarine cable system, which now links Portugal, Bermuda, and the US. This is another illustration of the expanding American investment in Portugal, according to Randi Charno Levine, the American ambassador to Portugal. “Subsea cables connect continents and enable the transfer of data, information, and ideas throughout the globe. They act as the backbone of international communication. The installation of a new subsea cable increases the resiliency of our communications network while lowering the cost of internet access. This is important for social inclusion, educational advancement, and economic growth.

Nuvem will touch down in South Carolina on the American side. Arrival of the cable will strengthen the state’s position as a developing technology hub by boosting connectivity and diversifying employment opportunities. Firmina, which touched down in South Carolina earlier this year and will finally link with Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay, will be followed by Nuvem.

Gov. Henry McMaster said that the extra cable linking to South Carolina “reaffirms our state’s position as a leader in cutting-edge technologies.” We applaud Google’s ongoing investments in digital infrastructure and anticipate the good effects on the state’s and the world’s economies.

For Google users and Google Cloud customers worldwide, Nuvem will boost capacity, improve dependability, and reduce latency when it is ready for service in 2026. It will build crucial new data corridors linking North America, South America, Europe, and Africa alongside Firmina and Equiano. These corridors will act as the underwater roots that reinforce the intercontinental network lattice and unite nations and economies from all over the globe.

Gaskins-Malany House

726 Bradbury Rd. southwest

Withamsville, OH

The Gaskins-Malany House is a historic house in Pierce Township, Clermont County, near Withamsville, Ohio. The house is located at 726 Bradbury Road, Locust Corner vicinity. The house, along with a summer kitchen, barn, smoke house and corn crib are nineteenth century rural buildings, representative of early agricultural practices in southwest Ohio.

The farmstead was originally part of the John Knox Survey, #4795. James Knox's grant #5056 was on “the waters of muddy creek” (Nine Mile), later part of Pierce Township. In 1827, John Gaskins purchased 57 acres including the Gaskins-Malany Farmstead property. He first built a one-room home with loft, adding in 1847 a front addition with two rooms down, and two rooms up. A small general store and saw mill existed on the site as well.

On August 8th 1885, five years after a narrow gauge railroad connector between New Richmond and Newtown was built by the Cincinnati and Eastern Railway, a trestle collapse occurred in front of the Gaskin-Malany Farmstead (Three Forks). The trestle crossed the creeks connecting the hill to the northwest, where a station for Locust Corner passengers existed, to the hill to the south. The injured and dying were placed on the stone porch. The Cincinnati and Eastern Connector ceased operation after this.

In 1947, remodeling occurred inside the farmhouse, and in 1948 an additional wing was added. In 1955, the Malany family made it their home. It was entered in the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service on October 29, 1975.

Solar panel installation

Before installing solar panels, there are a few crucial issues that need to be addressed. One of these is the state of your roof.

The shingles may become too brittle or worn-out to support the panels. This increases the likelihood that they may break down, nullifying your warranty. Solar panel installation

Identifying the state of your current roof is the first stage in a successful Solar installation on your roof. This will let you decide whether any repairs need to be made prior to installing the panels.

The solar panels themselves should be installed once you've completed the required repairs. If you have the necessary equipment and knowledge, you can complete this task on your own, but it's advised that you get professional assistance from a skilled solar installation.

Planning your wiring run and connecting all the components together come next. It is recommended to leave this task to a professional since it calls for specific electrical wiring skills.

It's time to submit the necessary papers to your utility company once you've finished all of this work. This comprises requesting a power purchase agreement and, if necessary, obtaining authorization for net metering. You should allow enough time for this process because it often takes a few days to finish. installing solar power

Having a robust and solid roofing foundation is one of the most important factors for a successful solar panel installation on your roof. By doing this, you may prolong the life of your panels and reduce the likelihood that they will need to be repaired in the future.

To ensure that your house is strong enough to sustain the added weight of your solar system, you need first have it professionally assessed. This will involve checking the insulation, rafters, and attic ventilation.

Second, the angle of your roof should be such that the panels face south or southwest. This is important because the angle your roof faces affects the amount of power your solar system generates.

Consult a skilled solar installer if you're unclear about the direction your roof should be pointed. They will be able to advise you on the optimal orientation for your particular circumstances. solar cell

You must confirm that your roof is a good candidate before installing solar panels on it. You must take into account your location, the quality of your roof, and the quantity of sunlight that it receives.

Your system's performance will be greatly influenced by the sort of battery you use. Two of the most crucial things to think about are the battery's power rating and capacity.

Batteries must be put properly as well. All batteries must be installed according to the manufacturer's instructions, which also apply to the positive and negative connector cords.

Installing a charge controller that can securely handle the load from all of your batteries is crucial if you have a battery bank. The batteries will be protected from overcharging, which can cause damage and even explosions.

What types of regional and local transport(s) does Cincinnati need more in the future? Explain why. 

Introduction (Jaclyn)

Cincinnati has a rich history of public transportation. We used to be the home to a very large system of streetcars, connecting Cincinnati’s multiple neighborhoods and bringing economic welfare to them. However, this system is no longer, and Cincinnati’s public transportation has gone downhill. In the early 1900’s, construction began on the Cincinnati subway. Today, those tunnels still stand unfinished and abandoned. Cincinnati has lost so much from the fall of the streetcars and the abandonment of the subway system. Yes, we have our Metro, but is that really enough for our city? In this post, we discuss what introducing 3 new modes of public transportation to Cincinnati would be like.  

BRT (Kayla)  Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) can be best described as buses acting as trains. It is achieved by allowing buses the right-of-way on the road among other things like collecting the fares at the station and prior to boarding. It also often requires treating buses differently than normal vehicles when at intersections. BRT could have and will have a bright future in Cincinnati because there are currently plans to introduce the system along two corridors in the Cincinnati area. These, along with any future planned lines, will connect the areas where people work and live in a faster and more efficient way than the current public transit system in place, which is buses. 

Photo from Cincinnati Metro 

Above are the planned corridors in the Cincinnati area. The Reading Road corridor and the Hamilton Avenue corridor have been approved and the city is going to begin construction here shortly. The plan is a collaboration between Metro and Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority (SORTA). This will be better for the area of Cincinnati as the current system of buses takes a long time to arrive at the destination due to frequent stops, payment locations, dealing with traffic, and dealing with stoplights. Until public transportation takes close to the same amount of time as driving might, there will be very little incentive for the average Cincinnatian to take it. BRT will likely begin to fix this dilemma by cutting down on the amount of time it takes to get between destinations. 

Streetcars (Sam)  As previously stated, Cincinnati used to be brimming with streetcars along every major artery of the city, but by the 50’s they were all phased out and the lines paved over. In 2016, the Cincinnati Bell Connector began operation, being a three-and-a-half-mile loop that serves the Downtown and Over-the-Rhine communities. This loop is a good start to something that could be great, and here’s how: 

In the original proposal that passed in 2008, the streetcar loop was intended to go up the hill into Cincy’s Uptown neighborhoods, providing access to the University of Cincinnati, the medical campus of the university, and the zoo. It was scraped once state funding was pulled, but implementing this route is vital to increasing the efficiency and usage of the streetcar system, as it would connect all the university students to downtown to get to their co-ops, provide all the residents of OTR access to a major ‘pull’ attraction in the zoo, and gets pedestrians access to the university hospitals. It would be a huge improvement to the current system. There has also been a lot of interest in taking the streetcar over the People Bridge and into Newport, and this should also be implemented to give Newport residents easy access to downtown, where many of them work. Expanding the streetcar to more people and not just those who live downtown is critical. 

Metro (Johnny)  Metro systems are the highest capacity systems a city can invest in. They are trains that operate completely or mostly garde separated at high frequency making them the fastest form of city transportation. It's important that Cincinnati invests in a metro system to increase capacity on our most ridden transit corridors. Metro systems also provide the quickest and most comfortable rides public transit can provide. Cincinnati could also develop transit-oriented development around these metro corridors. 

Metro/Buses () (Also maybe instead of buses we could do bike share/safer bike lines to promote that as a mode of transportation in the Cincinnati area? I don’t know if buses are truly the answer for the future of transportation in Cincinnati) 

Discussion question (Johnny)  With limited funds should a city invest in a large low-quality system or a small high-quality system?

We took a walk on Confluence Trail today, which goes underneath I-85, Ga. 400 and the Buford Highway Connector.

It's a bittersweet experience. The path allows you to a glimpse of the natural landscape that we've covered up with these mammoth pieces of car-centric infrastructure -- freeways that, in turn, fuel our unsustainable urban sprawl.

Creating these paths is small but significant way of saying "we screwed up; let's retrofit some respect for nature into this place." Worth a visit.

The southwest entrance to the Confluence path is at the intersection of Piedmont Road and Adina Drive. You can get there from both the 27 and 809 MARTA buses, and it's a few blocks from the Lindbergh rail station.

Volunteer Tree Planting with Trees Atlanta

Over the past few years, the state of Georgia has made headlines for leading the nation in urban tree loss. I decided to take action this week by volunteering with Trees Atlanta, an organization dedicated to protecting the city’s tree canopy, to plant some trees in local neighborhoods. 

After a post-recession recovery, thousands of new residents have flocked to the city of Atlanta. In fact, the city recently saw the third-highest population growth in the nation. For the metro area, this means more new developments and an increase in felled trees, to the tune of 18,000 acres on average annually. This comes at a high price for Atlanta: Among other costs, tree loss means hotter summers, lower water quality, increased ozone production, and a blow to its identity as the “City in the Forest.”

In terms of their physical attributes, trees give back to the planet in many ways. You likely have heard about how trees provide oxygen for us to breathe, filter pollutants out of the air, and are crucial in managing atmospheric CO2 levels. However, trees have several additional valuable qualities that are less commonly known. Trees block wind and provide heat insulation in the winter, and during the warmer months, forested areas are up to 10 degrees cooler than neighboring areas with no tree canopy. Planting trees, therefore, saves energy by reducing the need for electric heating and air conditioning. Trees also reduce noise pollution, prevent soil runoff and water pollution, and encourage biodiversity. 

Did you know that several studies have shown that communities with a greater tree canopy have lower crime rates? Similarly, researchers have found trees to provide numerous health benefits: The presence of trees can aid in mitigating stress and reducing the risk of cardiometabolic diseases. Studies even demonstrate that hospital patients recovering from surgery require less medication and recover quicker when placed in rooms with a view of trees. 

Founded in 1985, Trees Atlanta is a nationally-recognized nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation of Atlanta’s tree canopy. Fueled by volunteer work and offering a wide variety of community programs, the nonprofit describes itself as a “citizens’ group that protects and improves Atlanta’s urban forest by planting, conserving, and educating.” I was excited to get involved with this group to help restore my city’s urban forest.

To volunteer, I first registered for a planting shift on the Trees Atlanta website. On the day of my shift, I drove to their Operations Center just three miles southwest of downtown Atlanta, where I was greeted by coordinator Matt Dort. Matt started planting with Trees Atlanta seven years ago as a volunteer and now leads the organization’s neighborhood planting program. I also met Keithan, a fellow first-time planter. Keithan explained that he chose to volunteer with Trees Atlanta out of concern for the environment. 

From the Operations Center, Matt drove us to our first planting site, a nearby neighborhood along the downtown connector. Our first mission: to replace a damaged young Eastern redbud with a healthy sapling of the same species. The damaged tree would later be salvaged and rehabilitated at the Operations Center. Matt explained that redbuds are a common species on the Piedmont Plateau and are particularly well-suited for residential neighborhoods. We grabbed our shovels and took to digging. Pulling up the roots turned out to be more of a challenge than we had anticipated; with three people, this transplant ended up taking close to an hour.  

After laying the mulch on our first tree, we hopped back into the truck and drove to our second site: Waterworks Park. This newly redeveloped greenspace was opened just a year ago in my own neighborhood of West Midtown. I was happy to help expand the tree canopy in my local community. 

Once again, our work was not easy. We found that the park was sitting atop layers of gravel and tough Georgia clay. To dig the holes for planting new trees, we had to break up these hard layers with a pickaxe before shoveling away heavy piles of rock. Matt explained that the terrain would not be an issue for the trees, however, as only particularly durable tree species were selected for this tough urban environment.

We planted two additional saplings in the park that afternoon: an elm and a bald cypress. By the end of the shift, we were each covered in our fair share of mud and dirt. It definitely felt like an afternoon well spent. 

Planting with Trees Atlanta was a thoroughly fulfilling experience and I highly encourage anyone who is interested to get involved. In addition to offering diverse volunteer opportunities every week, Trees Atlanta also hosts regular educational and community events.
