"What can Brown do for you"? This familiar phrase took on new meaning on Saturday June 21. Eleven hardworking UPSers spent their morning volunteering at the ranch. Instead of the usual brown trucks, clipboards and packages, the tools of the day were pitchforks, rakes and shovels. Wes Fowler, Alvin Brooks, Mark Biener, Alex Jones, Joanne Schaffer, Cindy Keiffer along with Dan and Denise Parks and their children Mahrley, David and Joseph worked to make the grounds surrounding the ranch and house look top notch. Weeds were pulled, wood chips spread and lawn areas were seeded. The hours spent by these generous volunteers will go a long way in helping the SCYR qualify for a upcoming grant being offered by UPS. As one of the shirts worn by the workers read...."United as One... Making a Difference" This certainly holds true for both UPS and The Sunny Crest Youth Ranch. After the Saturday "Day of Caring" the hours spent by all volunteers tops 6000.
