The National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA) is seeking up to 10-20 volunteers to help remove Russian olive and tamarisk from the Fremont River corridor as part of an on-going project to control exotic invasive species in this area. Volunteers will need to register for this activity ahead of time. Be prepared for a day of moderate work cutting plants with hand saws and loppers! The park will provide tools and safety vests. Volunteers will be required to bring: sturdy work boots, long work pants, leather work gloves, eye protection (such as sunglasses or other), sunscreen, drinking water and snacks. NPCA will provide lunch.
