Originally scheduled on Sat. Oct. 25 but postponed until Sunday, Oct.
26 due to rain. Support your community and join the Montgomery County
Sierra Club at an invasive plant removal event in Rock Creek Park near
Beach Drive and East West Highway from 10am-12pm. The
Montgomery County Parks and Planning Commission has plans to reforest a
streamside buffer here, but before they can do that they need
volunteers to remove the vines and other invasive species that will
kill the saplings if they are not removed.
Pruners will be provided but other tools are limited so please bring
your own saws and loppers if you can. Long sleeves, pants, gloves,
comfortable walking shoes or boots, and water are recommended. For more
information, visit http://maryland.sierraclub.org/montgomery/ or
contact Jeremy Arling at md.sierraclub@... or 240-398-3635.
Directions. From the Beltway: Take the Connecticut Ave exit South
towards D.C. Turn left on East West Highway in about 1 mile. Turn right
on Beach Drive. We will meet at the parking lot alongside the soccer
field close to the intersection of Beach Drive and East West Highway.
