9/11 Day of Service
September 11 is observed as the National Day of Service and Remembrance and this year marks the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 events. This Day of Service is focused on inspiring Americans to give back through community service.
This year's National Day of Service and Remembrance community volunteer project will take place on Saturday, September 12, at Big Dry Creek Open Space. Volunteers will help improve the open space by participating in trail building, collecting data during a BioBlitz, planting native grass seed, and completing other stewardship projects.
We will provide tools, gloves, water, snacks, and a light lunch. If you plan to participate in the BioBlitz, please download the iNaturalist app before the event, if possible.
Schedule
- 9:00 a.m. – Volunteer activities begin
- 12:00 p.m. – Lunch provided
Please wear closed-toe shoes and bring sunscreen for your comfort and safety.
