All able bodied persons over 18 are welcome and appreciated. Volunteers should wear sturdy clothes and shoes, be prepared to get wet, and bring gloves, drinking water, and if possible, a metal garden rake. Volunteers will meet at the mill pond in Algonquin Park located at the corner of Route 52 and Powder Mill Rd. in the Town of Newburgh.
