"Even small spaces can be little islands of life." This phrase captures the spirit of the people who volunteered to bring whatever greenspace possible to our little corner of the world. The Greenspace Group held their first planning meeting on-site on 8/5/09 and has lots of great ideas for working with the property owners, residents and the government entities involved to create a beautiful natural area in our community.

Lisa Rainsong's pictures in this slideshow document both the neglect and the potential of the space.


If you want to go check out the creek area yourself, it's located at the end of Oakwood Dr, on the south side of the Mayfield-Warrensville retail area. Pull in the drive between Mario's Fishbowl and Hair Cafe. To see pictures of the drive from 1948 and today, click on our earlier posting Our logo, a blast from the past!

To volunteer to help with this project, please contact the co-leaders: Katharine O'Connell, katharine.oconnell@gmail.com and Scott M Castor scott.castor@sbcglobal.net.
