Keb is right - with the kids performing their parents and families will follow!
My backyard was mowed today and I only stopped twice to turn the mower on it's side and scrape out all of the wet grass clinging to the underside that slowed operation. (I keep a putty knife in the pocket of gardening apron I use for yard work.) It happens every spring. Years ago I used to uncover bunny nests. With dogs in the back now there are no bunnies in that part of the lot.
I linked a ceramics online course over to Dorothy's Facebook page - it may be too small and fussy to fool with, but it might be interesting to watch.
Good luck with the grants - and of course learn from the wording you're looking at. Very likely none of it is truly original. :)
