Waterloo Recreation Area - April 19, Volunteer Stewardship Workday
Contact
Join us as we remove invasive garlic mustard from around the Eddy Discovery Center at Waterloo. These workdays will be led by Rune Fredrickson (Life Scout, Troop 27) as part of his Eagle Scout project. Pizza will be provided!
Please dress for outdoor work, wearing long pants, long-sleeve shirt, work boots and sun protection. Bring layers to dress for the weather. Bring water, a snack and any medication you might need. To prevent the spread of invasive species, ensure all gear is free of mud and seeds. Work gloves, eye protection and hand tools are provided.
Volunteer stewardship workdays with the DNR engage volunteers through hands-on restoration and education as they help remove invasive plants threatening high-quality ecosystems in state parks across southern lower Michigan. Volunteers learn plant identification, see rare ecosystems, connect with others and more. No experience is necessary, and equipment and instruction are provided.

Please note: A Recreation Passport ;is required for vehicle entry into Michigan state parks.
Workday cancellations: If a workday is canceled due to inclement weather or any other reason, registered participants will receive an email notice at least two hours before the scheduled meeting time. Please check your email before departing.
