Hello Fellow Conservationist,
This announcement is to let you know about the upcoming invasive species
removal hosted by NVCT next Saturday, August 24, 2002. NVCT needs your help to
stop the spread of invasive wisteria on a 34-acre easement property in Mason
Neck. The beautiful property includes Environmental Quality Corridor land with
meadows and woods, and it lies adjacent to BLM Parkland. Please come out and
meet fellow nature enthusiasts and improve the environment while having a great
time.
The removal will occur from 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM at 10800 Harley Road (see
directions below). Please bring tools that you dont mind sharing, such as
clippers, hack saws, small chainsaws, shovels, gloves, etc. We suggest that
you wear comfortable clothes, tennis shoes or boots, and bug spray and
sunscreen. Some refreshments will be provided, but you should also bring some
water.
For any questions or to RSVP, please call or email Jeannie McPherson at
703-354-5093 or jmcpherson@xxxxxxxx. I hope to see you there!
Thanks!
Jeannie McPherson
