Preparing for the big day

The weekend before the Avocado Festival, from left, Jackie Heyneman and her tree wizards of Save Our Forest, Mary Polopolus, Jean Dooley and Sherry Lamont take on weeds and other wild things in support of local businesses and the Chamber of Commerce. They also worked at the parking lot, making tree wells clean and clear of debris. Debbie Meadows, not pictured, cleaned six tree wells on her own.
