Lynn Graham Lynn Graham has been instrumental in helping with a variety of Piney Run Council-sponsored activities. Each year, she creates beautiful floral centerpieces for our annual Spring Fever Coffeehouse, helps set up the tables and chairs for the event, and helps to serve the homemade desserts and fresh-brewed coffee. Lynn, with the help of her elderly father, spent many hours collecting large sticks around Piney Run Park, then cleaning, sanding, staining and decorating them to transform them into Piney Run Park Journey Sticks that are sold during the Piney Run Fall Festival and at the Nature Center (with the proceeds donated to the Piney Run Council). With her extraordinary musical talent, Lynn has kept our Piney Run Summer Nature Camp participants engaged with her lively hands-on musical sessions. Lynn is one of the first Council members to volunteer when help is needed for weeding and gardening; helping dig plants for our perennial swaps; planning, gathering and preparing supplies for various crafts; helping make popcorn for our Fall Festival; and helping with the Council’s financial audit, to name just a few. And, Lynn and her Yorkie, Cooper, keep an eye on the park grounds as they take their daily walks on the park roads and trails, reporting any problems promptly to the park staff. Lynn Graham is a very dedicated and generous volunteer and we are proud to select her as this year’s Piney Run Council Volunteer of the Year. |
