On July 15, TCWP will for the second year host a group of volunteers from Transformation Church (located in West Knoxville) at the Worthington Cemetery Ecological Study Area to remove Dahurian buckthorn and other invasive species, as one of a number of service projects church members will be conducting throughout the Greater Knoxville area. Volunteers will also help pick up litter and do some trail cleanup.
Additional volunteers are needed to work with the Transformation Church group. We’ll meet at Elza Gate Park in Oak Ridge at 10 a.m. and plan to work until 2 p.m.; a pizza lunch will be provided. Bring bug spray and loppers and/or clippers, and wear sturdy shoes and clothing. Minors will need a parent’s/guardian’s signature on a waiver form (to be provided) in order to participate. For additional information, contact Jimmy Groton at groton87@comcast.net.
