on clearing forest understory brush including salal, serviceberry, and blackberry to widen trail
corridor. Pruners, loppers, and other hand tools will be provided, volunteers are encouraged to
bring their own to help supplement supplies.
Interested volunteers will meet at the trail entrance into the park on Parkside Drive near the
Kosec Funeral Home across the street from Bishop Play Park.
Please bring:
Gloves
Pruners & loppers (for clearing vegetation)

Be sure to wear sturdy work boots and gloves, and dress for the weather – rain or shine, the trail
work will get done! Snacks provided afterwards.
