Description:Join us for a rewarding day of environmental stewardship as we work together to clear invasive plant species (privet, english ivy, honeysuckle, etc) &nbsp;spread mulch on the trail, and do some early fall planting of our beautiful Sylvan Park Bird Sanctuary. This vital work helps restore native habitat for local bird populations and ensures the park remains a thriving space for wildlife and the community. What to Expect: Volunteers will assist with removing invasive plants, which may involve digging, pulling, and hauling debris. Some heavy lifting may be required, but tasks will be assigned based on comfort and ability levels. No prior experience is necessary&mdash;just a willingness to get your hands dirty and make a difference! Parking: Free parking is available at the main Sylvan Park entrance located along Franklin Street (Please do not block neighbor driveways) &nbsp;Spots may be limited. Car Pooling is encouraged. Overflow parking will be to parallel park on Forest Street near Noll. Look for the Day of Caring signs and volunteer check-in table. What to Wear: Please wear long pants and sturdy closed-toe shoes or boots. We recommend clothes you don&rsquo;t mind getting dirty. Gloves will be provided. Tools Provided: We will supply a few &nbsp;weed wrenches, trash bags, and gloves. Feel free to bring your own gloves or favorite hand tools (trimmer, shovels, weed wrench) if you prefer. Bathrooms:Please note, there is NO bathroom on site at the park. Closest public restroom is at Publix Grocery Store on Market Street. Additional Reminders:<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Bring a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated throughout the day.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Apply sunscreen and insect repellent as needed, especially if it&rsquo;s sunny.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">A brief safety talk and orientation will kick off the event at 9:00 AM sharp.</li></ul>Let&rsquo;s make a positive impact together&mdash;see you at Sylvan Park!
