Expired

Description

Pocono Heritage Land Trust acquired a 137 acre property in Barret Township that will eventually become a public nature preserve.


It is a beautiful property, mostly wooded but with a beaver meadow and other wetlands. There are a few historic dump sites on the property that we would like to clean up.

Volunteers will remove old tires and other trash from the property. The work will be physical and could involve carrying heavy bags and other trash across terrain with uneven footing.*

We do not know yet whether lunch will be provided for volunteers. Please plan on bringing own water bottle(s) and food unless notified that they will be provided. 

*Please bring work gloves and wear comfortable shoes/boots to work in.


To participate, volunteer must fill out and email attached volunteer waiver:*

Email completed form to Events@PoconoUnitedWay.org or fill out the Online Volunteer Waiver Form


*Teams must have a completed waiver form for each volunteer participating in the event.
