About the Event

Join Lakes Region Conservation Corps members to remove terrestrial invasive species. Each program will begin with a lesson about how to properly identify and remove common invasive plants. Then it's time for you to help remove the plants from the work area! Our goal is that, after this program, you will feel confident identifying and properly removing these plants from other areas in the watershed.

As always, this work is weather dependent. Should any changes to plans arise, we will provide updates. We encourage help from volunteers who love the outdoors, enjoy hands-on conservation work, and are excited to work with our LRCC AmeriCorps members!

What to bring

Volunteers should bring appropriate clothing (long sleeves and long pants), water, sunscreen, and a snack. The SLA will provide tools, safety equipment, and other resources. However, we encourage volunteers to bring their own (well-labeled) tools if they want.

Youth Instructions

Volunteers between the ages of 16 and 18 require parental permission. Volunteers under 16 will need additional documentation; please contact the SLA if you are under 16 and interested in volunteering.
