PRESERVE WORK DAY
NOVEMBER 19, 11:00-2:00
(Rain Date - Dec. 3)
One of the Land Trust's newest Preserves needs some shaping up! Located near Westtown, Laurel Hill Preserve is a 90-acre block of forest that boasts many notable assets, including stone walls, old growth trees, vernal pools and the Tunkamose Creek (a tributary of the Wallkill River). The Preserve needs to have its boundaries marked, trails cleared, and a small wooden footbridge installed. Your hard work will be rewarded with light refreshments and superb camaraderie! Wear sturdy shoes; bring work gloves and any tools (hammer, loppers, hand saw, etc.) you have. Let us know if you have special skills. People who are especially proficient with GPS are especially welcome! Email info@oclt.org or call 343-0840 for details or to sign up.
LIMITED OPENINGS - SIGN UP EARLY!
