Mojave National Preserve Service Project: March 10, 2012

posted on February 7, 2012

Come spend Saturday, March 10, 2012 in the Mojave National Preserve with a group of volunteers cleaning up private land recently donated to the National Park Service and now legally part of the Preserve. Starting at 9 am and working through the afternoon, we will collect and remove junk, garbage, and other solid waste from a site in the Lanfair Valley on the eastern side of the Preserve. Bring water, sun screen, a hat, and lunch. Layers of clothing are best as temperatures can be unpredictable. Gloves, garbage bags, and tools will be provided. The Hole-In-The-Wall and Mid-Hills campgrounds (with water and vault toilets) are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Sturdy tents with strong stakes are advisable in case of high winds. The Mojave National Preserve Conservancy is pleased to partner with the National Park Service on this service project. Please contact Sid Silliman for details and to RSVP (.(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)).
