Darwin Junior Street Stocks Greening Day
The Darwin Junior Street Stocks held a greening day last Sunday and planted close to 50 plants around Northline Speedway. Darwin Junior Street Stocks will have another greening day soon to finish spreading the mulch kindly donated by Extreme Garden Care. The juniors have been doing a great job keeping the club rooms and surrounding area looking great.
