Community invited to help the river during the annual 'Restoration Day'

Event Date: 
June 4, 2016 - 9:15am

Help the League to Save Lake Tahoe assess the success of last year’s Tahoe Forest Stewardship Day. They will survey the plants that volunteers planted last September, water any plants that need a little care, stabilize streambanks and survey for aquatic invasive plants. By pitching in, the community can make a direct impact in restoring the habitat of the Upper Truckee River.

Ride your bike as part of the Tahoe Bike Challenge and receive a special prize. Refreshments will be provided. Lunch vouchers will be given to all volunteers.

When: Saturday, June 4 from 9:15 am to noon

Where: Upper Truckee River, South Lake Tahoe (RSVP for meeting location)
What to Bring: Volunteers should wear comfortable clothes that can get wet and dirty and either water shoes or sturdy shoes you don't mind getting wet. Remember your sunscreen and a reusable water bottle.
Optional: If you have work gloves, shovels, and/or trowels, feel free to bring those. We provide: Snacks, refreshments, gloves, training and equipment.
