The Lassen Land and Trails Trust, Bureau of Land Management and the Lassen County Chamber of Commerce are inviting outdoor enthusiasts to help with Lassen County cleanup and improvement projects in recognition of National Public Lands Day and Susanville Hometown Pride this Saturday, September 28th.
Projects will take place from 9:00a.m., until noon at the historic Susanville Railroad Depot, Main Street, and along the Bizz Johnson Trail.
Volunteers will meet at 9:00a.m., at the depot, 601 Richmond Road and form into project teams to pick up litter and perform other light tasks.
Lunch will be provided for those who register online or call the Lassen Land and Trails Trust at 1.530.257.3252. The BLM will provide gloves, tools and water.
National Public Lands Day is coordinated by the National Environmental Education Foundation. Since 1994, NPLD has mobilized volunteers on the fourth Saturday in September to celebrate and care for something we all share, our nation’s public lands.
In the past decade alone, over a million volunteers have donated almost five million hours of their time, worth an estimated $133 million, to improve public lands. These efforts are crucial to preserving our natural resources for future generations to enjoy.
