Come for a day or the weekend to enjoy early Fall at the Refuge where we will again help prepare for the annual Festival of the Cranes. This year we will replace posts and do other maintenance on trails and may create a new trail on the Farm Loop. Breakfast on Saturday and Sunday and dinner on Saturday night will be provided by the VFO and prepared by a volunteer cook. Everyone is welcome and newcomers are encouraged to attend. Volunteers should plan to meet at 7:30 AM on Saturday morning at the Volunteer Center. Carpooling is encouraged and will be facilitated by the Project Leader. A limited number of beds will be available on Friday and Saturday nights in a bunkhouse near the Volunteer Center on a first-come basis. Sorry, beds cannot be reserved; volunteers should bring camping equipment in case the bunkhouse fills up. Tent and RV/truck camping is available in the area near the bunkhouse. Bathrooms with hot showers are available in the bunkhouse and Volunteer Center. Bring long-sleeved shirts, long pants, work gloves, work boots, sun protection, mosquito repellant, raingear, lunches & snacks, and water bottles or hydration packs. Please sign up for this project by Sunday, October 2.
