Weed Warrior Workday at Wyngate Woods Neighborhood Park
Saturday November 6, 2021 10:00am to 12:00pm
Registration for this event is now closed! Please check this webpage for other Weed Warrior opportunities.
Save the trees! Join Dick Kerr, Weed Warrior Supervisor, for a Saturday morning English ivy workday in Wyngate Woods Neighborhood Park. We will be pulling well-entrenched ivy from the ground in the larger of the park’s two remaining patches of ivy. It’s still there in part because of the added challenge of working around and under native shrubbery, but that won’t stop us from reaching our goal of freeing Wyngate’s 3.5-acre park from this tree-killer.
The rain date will be Saturday, November 13, 2021 (10am-noon).
Please wear long pants that cover your ankles, long sleeves, and sturdy, closed-toed shoes. Bring gloves and pruners if you have them. Gloves are available to borrow if you don’t have your own. No power tools or machetes allowed. Please bring water to drink. Please note: Court Ordered Volunteer Hours can’t be granted through this workday.
This event is capped at 12 people and is for people 18 years or older.
All Parks staff and volunteers must be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 by November 1, 2021.
