Can you help plant trees? On Saturday, volunteers are needed to plant thousands of them on the western side of Mountain Island Lake. This tree project, sponsored by the North Carolina Sierra Club and the Central Piedmont Group, helps filter groundwater and creates a buffer to keep our drinking water clean.The participants will meet at the Henderson Park Swim Club on November 22nd, work from 9:00 a.m. to 1 p.m, and be treated to a thank-you luncheon and celebration, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m.
If you can help, the NC Sierra Club asks you to visit their registration site, which also provides a map to the Swim Club. Tools will be supplied, but it will be helpful if you can bring a shovel or gardening tools. If it rains, bring rain gear; if it storms, sponsors will notify you and reschedule. For more information, please contact Jennifer Keech, jkkeech@aol.com, of the Central Piedmont Group, or call Kara Craig, of the NC Sierra Club, at (919) 833-8467.
