This site is located off of Chalan Lamasu near the Ironwood Estates.
Community and school groups are welcome to join. Showtime is 6:30 a.m. Work will begin at 7 a.m.
MATERIALS & SUPPLIES: If you have gloves and such, you are welcome to bring those, but we will have gloves and bags to pass out at the site.
