After discussions with City of Knoxville officials led by chapter conservation chair Mark Campen, the Knoxville Chapter TOS has "adopted" Sharps Ridge. During a workday at the ridge on Saturday, October 23, over a dozen chapter members unveiled the adoption signs, picked up litter, removed grafitti, and worked to slow the spread of invasive plants. Go to http://www.tnbirds.org/KTOS-SRadopt.htm for more details. The next workday will be held Saturday, November 20. For more information, contact Mark Campen at campen@xxxxxxxxxx Or just show up at the ridge about 9 AM ready to work.
