Lions Reseal Path Around Pond

SEELEY LAKE - Members of the Seeley Lake Lions Club spread sealant on the walkway around the pond at Lion's Park Saturday, July 21. The club was unable to do their usual maintenance last year because of the Rice Ridge Fire, which began on July 23, 2017. This spring, the runoff and high ground water caused the pond to flood as well so that the lower benches and tables near the water were completely submerged. 

Lions Club president Jon Kimble said that in preparation for putting on the sealant he pressure washed the sidewalk.

"The flooding brought in four to eight inches of dirt that had settled on the path," he said. "Usually it takes about four hours to clean the whole walk. This year, it took four days."

The club is also planning on getting rid of weeds around the path and planting flowers according to Bobby Maddox who will be taking over the project next year.

"I don't know where right now," he said. "Wherever my wife says I'm going to plant them."
