The Wilderness Center

1) Hello everyone! Most of you know we hosted 2 vernal pool workshops this year. Well, yesterday, we started digging our very own new pool. This Saturday (October 31st) we are looking for volunteers to help us finish the digging. We’ll provide all the tools and lunch. It will be muddy work, but should be fun! We hope to do the final grading and berm-building, and seed it with annual rye. We’ll start at 10:00 and work until 12 or 12:30, then have lunch. You might want to bring a change of clothes! Please let me know if you plan to come so I can round up enough shovels, etc.

2) The other opportunity is setting up salamander transects on Thursday, Oct. 29th . Jack Taylor (OCVN 2009) and I laid out the lines and got everything ready. We need help hauling and laying out the brick coverboards. We’ll start at 9:30 and should be done before lunch.

Sorry for the short notice on theses events!
