Voas Volunteer Day
LOCATION: Voas Nature Area, Minburn
DATE/TIME: Sat, Nov 5, 9am-noon
Have you ever asked yourself if there was a good way you could help wildlife? Not just temporarily picking up trash but something that had a long-lasting impact? For the last 5 summers, DCCB has had 14 volunteers 10-14 years of age to help clear an oak-savanna area. We invite you to continue to clear the understory at this site. Summer is hot with mosquitos and poison ivy, but fall is crisp with no bugs or foliage. We will use hand saws and loppers to clear honeysuckle, multiflora rose, and small trees. Help us liberate these smothered “wolf” oaks. You’ll be home before the kickoff of your favorite team! *Registration required
