Despite the heavy rain of Friday evening washing out a couple of planned projects, the Love Escalon community work day on Saturday, April 8 saw dozens of people fan out in multiple directions, all working to better their community. A group of churches joined together to put on the effort, hosting an 8 a.m. rally at the city’s Main Street Park before sending crews off to their various work stations and projects. From a group walking neighborhoods to collect food for C.A.R.E. to volunteers doing weeding and lawn clean-up, there was plenty of love spread around during the roughly three-hour work window on Saturday morning.
