Significant time was devoted this year to working with RIOC for pond safety in the garden. Thanks to Ron Schuppert and Ali Schwayri's steady efforts and to RIOC's timely response, we are now set up with a strong pump that runs all during the season to move the water in the pond and help protect against potential mosquito larvae.
Roosevelt Island Garden Club purchased all the materials. RIOC provided the work and expertise to run an electric cable to this spot. John Dodge designed and cares for this section of the garden and we want to thank Dr. Grimm who supported the initiative, speaking up for RI Garden Club and our important mosquito prevention campaigns. This kind of work is constantly essential, and yet, can easily go un-noticed as we move ahead with ongoing safety monitoring and continued garden improvements.
Thank you to RIOC Maintenance and Administration. Photo credits to Olya Turcihin and her post this summer on Show Me Your NYC!!!.
