You are registering for SVLC - Make A Difference Day - Oct. 24, 2020
Registration Form created by Andrew Arnold
SVLC has been asked to assist the City of Maple Valley on Make A Difference Day by working on the Discovery Forest Trails on the the north side of the Arboretum.
The trails are used by the Tahoma Running Teams for training and races. Usually they help clear them a bit. But with COVID019 cancelling team practices, the trails are a little over grown. They are located on the north side of the gravel bike trail.
They need a good group of people to go out and cut back vegetation, mostly Salal and Vine Maple, with a few trailing blackberries. It is easy work done with hand pruners and loppers. (BYO) The debris can just be thrown back into the forest.
There will be volunteers from the arboretum to guide us. Bring your own tools!
We'll meet at 9:00 am at the white tent in the Arboretum. Please fill out the sign up sheet.
