About this event

Hoffler Creek Wildlife Foundation | http://www.hofflercreek.org

Help us maintain the preserve’s trails and common areas. Your help goes a long way towards allowing others to enjoy the natural wonders here!

Most of our volunteer work will take place outdoors and require some level of manual labor. There is a possibility of encountering bugs, snakes, or other small animals while working outside. Depending on your skill level and the nature of the project at hand, you may be asked to use pruners, loppers, shovels, rakes, hedge trimmers, chainsaws, or other tools. Examples of possible projects include, but are not limited to: removing brush piles/debris from trails, widening trails, or trimming invasive vines from trees.

Ages 10 & up are welcome, but those under 16 are not recommended. If you choose to bring a minor, they must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times.

*If you have a minor who would like to volunteer, contact us for more appropriate tasks.*

All participants are to wear weather and outdoor appropriate clothing. If it has rained, please be prepared for mud and/or puddles along the trails. Bug spray and bottled water are recommended during the summer months.
