For safety reasons, portions of Falls Creek Road, Three Mile Knob Road, and Whispering Springs Road will be closed to thru traffic beginning at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday, September 28th while work is being done. Other areas in the neighborhood may be addressed as time and resources permit. This may also spill over into Sunday, September 29th if needed.

We will be doing tree and brush removal along the roads of Falls Creek development on that day and would love it if you joined us. We will need people to trim branches, help haul brush to the chipper, and to direct traffic at both closure points. If you are interested in helping out for all or part of the time, please contact Wayne Hardy.
Rain date is October 5th.
