Conservation Work Party

Where: Williams-Olson Park, 6200 Williams Lane

When: Saturday, March 12 (2nd Saturday), 10:00a-12:00p

What:  A windstorm kept us from our work in December, but we’re headed back to Williams-Olson Park. Williams-Olson Park is a waterfront park along a sloping bluff with 4.8 acres of upland property, 8 acres of tideland, and 460’ of shoreline access. Volunteers will help tackle ivy and some blackberry along a short trail through the wooded portion of the park.
