Drop in Volunteer opportunity for individuals OR groups! (If bringing a group, let us know ahead of time so we can have special projects lined up! [email protected] )
Each month we work to clear trails at one of the four Oshtemo parks. For August and September we're doing a Double Dose at the Drake Farmstead Park, on Drake Road between West Main and Croyden!
Our Parks Open House is going to be held at Drake, Sunday Sept 28 from 2-4pm, so we want to make sure this park is at it's best!
We're also looking for volunteers to lead hikes on the trails we'll be working on, so what better way to get familiar with them!
This is an historic property (and former home of the Drake road namesake) and we'll be working to cut back overgrowth and invasive species along the trails to make hiking around easier.
Two work dates are on the calendar for this park:
Friday September 5 from 10:00am - 12:00pm
Friday September 19 from 10:00am - 12:00pm
It's a great opportunity to meet other people, and participants often come away with expanded knowledge from the conversations with their new friends! A small amount of cutting tools are available to borrow, but feel free to bring your own. And feel free to bring a lunch, too. It's nice to stay after and chat.
See you at the Rotary Pavilion at 10:00am!
