Calling all Weed Warriors, Litter Lifters and Thistle Thugs!

Northern Arizona Audubon is having our first work day on the east Rio de Flag. We will be pickingup trash and digging up non-native, invasive thistle.

Date: Saturday, April 7th
Time: 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. (or whenever you get tired and decide to leave)

Directions: From Flagstaff, go north on Hwy 89 toward Page, past the Mall. Turn right onto Townsend/Winona road, go approx 4.5 miles and turn left onto dirt road. (If you get to Slayton Ranch Rd, you've just passed us). Go left at the fork in the road and follow it down to the Rio (you'll see all the other cars there).

We will have a banner and a couple of folks out by the road at 9:00, so we shouldn't be hard to find.

Please bring:
Gloves, hat, sunscreen, water and a folding chair or bucket to sit on for lunch. I also recommend
wearing long pants and a long-sleeved shirt. If you have a sharp shovel, please bring it as well.

County Supervisor Deb Hill has graciously offered to provide lunch for our volunteers, so -PLEASE - let me know if you are planning to come out and help, no later than Tuesday, April 3rd, so we can plan for enough food.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Thanks!
