Opportunity Details
Burnt Bridge Creek Greenway Planting (age 5+) *MLK Weekend 2019*
Join us in honoring the legacy of Dr. King through meaningful service to our community: "Everybody can be great... because anybody can serve."
-- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Watershed Alliance works to educate and engage community members to be active stewards of SW Washington natural legacy, with a focus on creeks, lakes, and other water bodies. We educate children and adults, while giving them hands on opportunities to participate in the restoration and protection of waterways.
We will be planting trees and shrubs along the greenway to improve the habitat and water quality of Burnt Bridge Creek. Please dress for the weather and bring a water bottle and if you have a pair of gardening gloves, please bring them. Tools will be provided!
This is always one of our biggest events of the year and we love seeing the community come together for such a great cause!
