Work Party with Evan on June 9th at the Lawrence Preserve
Starting next Wednesday, Evan (the TerraCorps member for the ALT) will be holding weekly work parties completing tasks on the various ALT properties. These work parties will be held on Wednesdays and usually run from 9am to 12pm (noon). Next Wednesday (June 9th) will be the first work party at the Anthony Lawrence Wildlife Preserve. We will need 3-4 volunteers to help out, and the work party may not take the entire three hours to complete. Please send an email to Evan (evanfosterALT@gmail.com) or reply directly to this email if you are planning on attending. Please see more details below.
