Himalayan balsam removal @ Taylor Creek
Saturday, July 27, 2019
9:00am - 12:00pm
 

Taylor Creek was one of the streams we monitored last year and we found a lot of garbage along the shores. This stream is divided at this reach by St Joseph Blvd, we will be meeting at 9am across the road from the Princess Lousie Falls. This is a continuation effort from our previous removal event, as density of balsam is high in this area.  

Parking: There is road side parking on Taylor Creek Drive, please make sure not to block bus stops (https://goo.gl/maps/QfnpDcbXyJC241ND6)

Meeting location: Meeting will be downstream of St. Joseph Blvd across the road from Princess Lousie Falls (https://goo.gl/maps/kc4G1KCb7n4wbBKh9)

What to wear: Dress for the weather! Wear waterproof boots, long socks (if you want to borrow chest waders), long pants and a hat

What to bring: Feel free to bring your own gloves if you have a favorite but we will provide them; please bring your own water bottle

What we will provide: We will have drinking water to replenish empty bottles, some snacks, chest waders (for those who reserve them send me your shoe size with your RSVP), gloves

If you are interested in participating, please RSVP for chest waders
