2022 Marsh cleanup and LNT awareness workshop
Join us for a morning of marsh cleanup, comradeship, and lunch as we show our appreciation of the parks' support for geocaching. We will be working to remove trash, and also remove Purple Loosestrife, a deceitfully beautiful invasive species to better allow the native plants to flourish.
After a morning of stewardship, we will gather around to enjoy lunch and learn about the Seven Principles of Leave No Trace. (Naturally, there will be some prizes and new caches too.)
