After a brief introduction we will split into work teams and head onto the trail and shoreline of Falls Lake
If you can join the team: RSVP to Meetup: https://www.meetup.com/nc-fmst/events/299356559/, your response informs the tool preparation that will await you, and helps us plan the day.
What to bring: You need to wear appropriate-for-the-weather work clothes (that can get dirty), solid shoes or boots, and bring snacks, water, and work gloves if you have if not we will provide some. If you have a favorite litter-picking tool, bring it.
What we bring: We will provide litter tools, extra work gloves, and instructions. If you are new to this kind of activity, there will be experienced volunteers within asking distance: we are a supportive trail community that loves to grow.
Cancellation: If the workday is canceled due to bad weather, a message/comment will be sent out no later than 8:00 p.m. the preceding day, to the RSVP list.
Safety: Use tools carefully. If you do not know how to use a particular tool, or what to do in a particular circumstance please ask. Do not lift anything heavier than you can comfortably lift — know your limits. Take plenty of breaks. Make sure to drink plenty of water, even when it’s cold outside. Be aware of ticks, chiggers, snakes, stinging insects, and poison ivy.
