Rotarians Help Mulch Downtown Parks

Waterloo Rotarian John Mallen led volunteers who weren't afraid of a little dirt as they spruced up a couple downtown parks on Tuesday, May 10. The effort was part of Woodruff Construction's 60 year anniversary celebration which will include several more community projects in the other communities where Woodruff has offices. Based in Fort Dodge, Woodruff Construction opened an office downtown Waterloo in 2014 and John promptly joined the Waterloo Rotary Club.

Lincoln Park and Soldiers Park adjacent to the Veterans Memorial Hall along the Cedar River now sport a bright new bed of mulch thanks to these volunteers:
