    Is this a youth group from a certain church?
    Do they prefer to remain nameless?
    Same group each year?

    Yes. It is the Common Ground Christian Church. They are from Bradford, Ohio. They don't come every year, but they were here 4 years ago.

    These kids are awesome. One side completely done. We now have 47.5 cords stacked under roof!!! We have delivered 10 cords between yesterday and today to 3 of our families. In total so far the kids have split, stacked and delivered almost 17 cords in 2 days.

    Impressive effort by these young men and women (I can't see calling them kids with the effort they've put forth). Nice to see young people who aren't buried in a cell phone.

    Yesterday the groups of kids got another dump truck load out to a new family then we took the group to a home of a currently serving military man and his wife. This man as just stationed in Texas for his last 2 years before he retires. They had a pile of logs that needed cut and split and stacked as well as 3 trees that were felled months ago before he left and never processed. So the kids were able to get most of the logs cut, split and stacked. The tress were bucked up on the side of a hill. They will be finished being splot and stacked tomorrow. Today is their day off and will be visiting the Flight 93 memorial.

    Well, tomorrow is the last day for the Ohio kids missionary group working here with New Life Wood Ministry. We are going to finish the job for the man and his wife who are in Texas in the military. They only have 1/2 day. So, I am putting these on the smoker tonight for about 12 or 13hrs. overnight and they can experience Lawlers delicious pulled pork. Gonna make some smoked baked beans and homemade 5 cheese mac and cheese.

    No teenagers ran chainsaws. The adult chaperones did.
