We do our splendid work on the prairie from 9 – 11 a.m. Then at 11, we meet at the picnic tables, each with your own brown bag or maybe your Roy Rogers or Avenger lunch pail. We eat our PBJs and apple slices surrounded not only by an amazing view, but great folks. Even if you can’t work on the prairie, come to the picnic!
We break into teams and each team has a knowledgeable volunteer, so you know exactly what to do.
For last-minute information, especially if the weather is questionable, check our website or Facebook page for updates, including dates and locations which may change because of conditions. We don’t want anyone working in the forest or on the prairie if there is a chance of lightning strikes.
