Picture Canyon Cleanup Day Announcement
Mark your calendars for 22 October to join many other groups and agencies for nationwide "Make a Difference Day". A thorough Picture Canyon Cleanup has been submitted as our local capstone project. Come out to join or support the many different projects wich will be part of this effort. (We have already removed vehicles and over 20 tons of concrete debris using heavy equipment.)
For more information and to keep up with plans, go to the blog archive category: D. Picture Canyon, listed on the right column of the blog, and scroll down through various announcements and background information. To register in advance, go to the Northern Arizona Trail Runners Association, who will also be hosting a webpage for the event. Or just follow the signs on Old Route 66 in east Flag, past the mall, to Picture Canyon. Volunteer registration starts at 8:30 am on Saturday. Tools provided.
Various Picture Canyon Projects are expected to be part of this year's partnership of the Arizona Master Naturalist Program and Arizona Master Watershed Stewardship Program. Might as well get a head start!
