MARKLEEVILLE, Calif. - The Alpine Watershed Group will be hosting an Earth Day Work Day on Saturday, April 21, 2018 at Grover Hot Springs State Park. This event allows for the completion of important restoration work to a beautiful, and important alpine meadow.

Volunteers are needed to help with invasive weed removal, fence rebuilding and extension, and state park maintenance. All are welcome to attend. No experience is necessary. Participants will gather at Grover Hot Springs at 8:30 a.m. for registration and introductions.

Volunteers are asked to bring water in reusable water bottles (as we will provide water re-fill stations), sun protection, and appropriate clothing.
