Hello Natural Areas Club!

The local conservation group The Prairie Enthusiasts' Chippewa Savanna Chapter will be holding a work party this Saturday (October 22nd) from 1-4pm at their Dobbs Landing site near Colfax. This is a great opportunity to gain some experience working on conservation projects while also volunteering to help the environment and getting to know people.

Any amount of prior experience is welcome. We'll be working on collecting any seed that is ready, preparing a few areas for a spring prescribed burn (cleaning up down fuel and limbing up trees), and working on removing buckthorn and honeysuckle throughout the site.

Please dress for the weather, wear sturdy shoes, and bring a water bottle. We'll provide snacks, gloves, and any tools necessary.

Meet in the Dobbs Landing parking lot at 1pm. If you arrive late, you can walk north along the gravel road beyond the gate to join us. Directions can be found here: https://www.theprairieenthusiasts.org/cssites

For this off-campus event, members are responsible for their own travel arrangements.
