Hello Friends of Hackmatack Volunteers,
Our next ecological stewardship day will be Sunday, December 4th from 1 to 4 p.m.
We are going to continue our work at Tamarack West, located on the south side of Tryon Grove Road 1.2 miles west of the intersection of Routes 12 and 31. We are already opening up a beautiful view of Glacial Park to the south, and though our volunteer groups have been small, we are making good progress.
We are hopeful that we will have a number of students from the Alden-Hebron High School.
We invite everyone to come help build the refuge by cutting some brush or hauling a few branches to the pile. We need your help! A map to the Tamarack West site from the intersection of Routes 12 and 31 is shown here: https://www.google.com/maps/dir/42.4508804,-88.3058755/42.4466615,-88.3285283/@42.4468109,-88.3251326,1556m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!4m1!3e0 Google Maps
Wear clothes and shoes that can get dirty, and please bring your own drinking water. We’ll have hand tools, work gloves, safety glasses, and some snacks. An RSVP is appreciated, so if you know you will be attending please give me a heads up. For those who may be attending who are under age 18, you will need a parent or guardian to sign the attached form indicating that you are authorized to attend; you can either email the signed form back to me or bring it to the workday. (You do not need to sign, just your parent/guardian.) FORMS ARE LOCATED IN THE HS OFFICE
As always, if there is any question of weather, please check in with Pete Jackson at 224-612-1803. We hope to see you out at Tamarack West!
