Join us from 9:00 am – 1:00 pm on Saturday April 30 at the Whitlock Preserve. As we work, we will learn about the importance of proper recreation management, especially around wetlands. We will also learn about the invasive plants that overtake our natives and how that impairs the ecosystems we rely on. There will be activities for all ages, from trail maintenance to invasive weed removal.
The Meeting will be held at Town Hall at 7:00 p.m.
