National Public Lands Day
September 28, 2013
NPCA will be partnering with the Washington Trails Association (WTA) and the National Park Service again this year to celebrate National Public Lands Day (NPLD). Together, we will work on multiple service projects within the park, including trail maintenance and native plant re-vegetation. NPLD will be on Saturday September 28, 2013 from 9:00am-3:00pm. NPLD is an opportunity to meet other NPCA volunteers, to get in an autumn visit to Mount Rainier and provide a necessary service to the park. Please contact Shannon Brundle with any inquiries regarding this event: sbrundle@npca.org, (206) 903-1457. Hope that you will be able to join us!
