Title A name given to the resource Fire Ant Express Caboose Subject The topic of the resource On November 5, 2024, The Ashburn-Turner County Chamber of Commerce organized a community cleanup day. Volunteers dedicated themselves to revitalizing the Fire Ant Express Caboose. The project received an enthusiastic boost from a group of students from the College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College (ABAC). These students worked tirelessly, scrubbing and repainting the train to restore its former glory. A special thank-you goes to Benjie Barbee for generously providing power and water for the pressure washing. Benjie also volunteered to repaint the iconic ant logo on the train—an essential part of its charm. Sami Mastrario deserves recognition for her meticulous work on the intricate details along the train's sides, a task that required great patience and precision. The restoration was made possible through the dedication of volunteers, including Josue Beltran, Jair Baltazar, Jennifer Perez, Joncarlo Velasco, and Yareli and Mayra Contreras. Their hard work, combined with community support, has ensured that the Fireant Express remains a cherished local landmark. Acknowledgments: Volunteers: Josue Beltran, Jair Baltazar, Jennifer Perez, Joncarlo Velasco, Yareli Contreras, Mayra Contreras Special Thanks: Benjie Barbee, Sami Mastrario Supporting Organization: ABAC CAMP This collaborative effort underscores the power of community spirit in preserving Ashburn's unique heritage and fostering pride in its landmarks.
