Michael Courtney sent me this message about the project he is organizing this Saturday. Since most of us use the Espous to swim, fish, etc, etc. I thought some of you might be interested. Here is what he had to say:
"We will be doing a volunteer streamside planting project this Saturday. Can you post info on this on the WV blog?
Info is below. I also included a planting clip art file and a pdf of the flyer for the event. This is part of our Creek Week."
Thanks! Michael
Saturday, September 18, 9:00 am – 12:00
Location of Event:_ Meet at Ashokan Watershed Stream Management Program Office, 6375 State Route 28. Just west of Phoenicia, across from former Margo’s Restaurant.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! Help plant trees and shrubs to restore stream side vegetation on a local stream. We will meet at the project office and carpool to the planting location. Bring boots, workgloves, a shovel if you have one and water bottle.
