Plant The Park at Blue Hole Regional Park Saturday May 21


The first phase of improvements at Blue Hole Regional Park is nearly done, but we need your help to finish! Your time represents direct savings for the community. The value of your time will substantially reduce the contract cost of the Blue Hole Project and help our dollars go much further.

Landscaping plans call for restoration and filling-in with native plants next to walkways and existing vegetation. Friends of Blue Hole is organizing a small army of volunteers to work under the supervision of master naturalists and landscape architects. We are calling this effort Plant The Park.

We won’t work you to death, and volunteer gardeners need no special expertise, only a willingness to get your hands a little dirty. There will be jobs for those less mobile as well. Our first Plant The Park event is scheduled for Saturday, May 21, 2011 from 8:30-1:30. Bring a couple of handy gardening tools, a shovel, rake, trowel, rock bar, mattock, etc. and we’ll let you put them to good use. Don’t forget your gloves and sun screen! We’ll provide the water, snacks, and camaraderie.
