Brighton Rec Volunteer Work Day

Help protect the unique fen ecosystem of Brighton Recreation Area by removing the glossy buckthorn that threatens to move in and take over from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, June 26.

We spent all winter removing glossy buckthorn here, but identifying the buckthorn should be easier this time of year with leaves! We'll continue our efforts and see a lot of neat plants in bloom in the vicinity.

Meet at the entrance to Murray Lake Campground on Bauer Road, between Cunningham Lake and Bishop Lake Roads.

Note: ***Waterproof boots, either knee-high rubber boots or hip waders, are recommended for this site. Knee-high rubber boots are available to borrow, upon request.

Availability is limited; first come, first served. Old boots that you don't mind getting muddy will work too.
