On August 6, at Friends of the Farm at Hilltop’s Volunteer Appreciation Day, new volunteer Carol Komosa looks on as volunteer Rich Grabowski of Manchester, right, admires the prize he has received from President Howie Orr, left, as Volunteer of the Year. Rich travels to Hilltop weekly and spends at least four hours trimming grass from around the hundreds of fence posts. He has willingly taken on that responsibility for years.
