SUMMARY:FoGP Volunteers are Heading Back to Griffith Park's Fern Canyon
DESCRIPTION:It´s been awhile since we hiked into this area to conduct some work and while it´s a good thing that some Park natives planted years ago are thriving\, the area could definitely use a few hands and followup. \nBTW\, this sweet charming area is adjacent to one of the many canyon-fed stream beds in the Park. If you´ve never been here\, it´s your opportunity to discover one of the many areas destroyed in the 2007 fire\, yet this has come back nicely. For more information on these restoration efforts\, we created a brochure highlighting the Marshall High students who worked on the project. \nAs usual\, we´ll provide tools and gloves\, but if you have a favorite pair you love\, please feel free to bring them. We urge you to always wear clothes and shoes that you don’t mind getting REALLY DIRTY! \nIf you’ve volunteered with us in the past\, you know Rec and Parks requires volunteer agreements\, so if you haven’t filled one out\, please do so and send along to Ross. We´ll also have a few available at the event just in case.

SUMMARY:Planting Event Across from Greek Theatre
DESCRIPTION:We’re heading back to the area across the street from the Greek to mulch\, weed and plant more natives to take advantage of winter storms dropping more wet stuff. \nWhile we’ve made some headway in this area\, there’s always more to be done! We’ll be placing more natives so when spring arrives\, you’ll see more blooms along these hillsides\, a testament to volunteer efforts. \nPark in the Greek parking lot and cross the street (look for our signage). As always\, we recommend wearing long pants\, bring a hat (and if you have a favorite pair of gloves\, bring ’em\, and don’t forget the sunscreen. Of course we’ll supply all of the tools needed. We also supply water and work gloves\, but suggest if you have a water bottle\, please bring it. \nIf you’ve volunteered in the past\, you don’t need to fill in a Volunteer Agreement —  if you’re a first timer\, it’s important you fill this out and either send to Ross ross@friendsofgriffithpark.org\, or bring with you. \nAnd if you’re a member of an organization looking for community service\, we may be the “ticket’… Leave the info on FoGP’s VOLUNTEER NOW and someone will contact you.

SUMMARY:We're Heading Back to the Bird Sanctuary
DESCRIPTION:It’s back to the Bird Sanctuary for additional work between the rains… We´ll be cleaning the stream beds of leaves\, branches\, and debris because the heavy rains tend to create floods in this area. We’ll also be pulling weeds which is always great fun. \nAs far as parking near this site; we strongly suggest that you park at the Greek Theater and walk up. It’s roughly a 10-minute walk unless you — like me — walk slow. \nWe highly recommend that you wear long pants\, bring a hat (and if you have a favorite pair of gloves\, bring ’em\, and don’t forget the sunscreen. We’ll supply all of the tools needed. We do supply water and work gloves\, if you have a water bottle\, please bring it. \nIf you’ve volunteered in the past\, you don’t need to fill in a Volunteer Agreement\, but if you’re a first timer\, it’s important you fill this out and either send to Ross at rossarnold1213@gmail.com\, or bring with you. \nAnd if you’re a member of an organization looking for community service\, we may be the “ticket’… Leave the info on the VOLUNTEER NOW button at the top of the Home Page\, and someone will contact you. Thanks.
