The Grounds Team is part of the Property Committee. The Team Captain leads the team, whose main responsibility is to maintain the grounds and exterior spaces at Ascension. The main focus is on two Parish workdays held each year by the Grounds Team, where the major concerns include pine straw, bush and tree trimming, and minor repairs on tables and chairs. The Team may be needed at other times when grounds concerns arise, such as repairs to the sprinkler system, outside lighting, and maintenance as needed in the Gardens. The routine maintenance (mowing, leaf blowing) is handled by the landscaping company and is not a job duty for the Grounds Team.
