Wildwood and Vogel Flats Picnic Sites Restoration
Upper Big Tujunga, Angeles NF
Please join us in cleaning up graffitti, planting trees, and fixing up benches at the Wildwood and Vogel Flats Picnic sites. These spectacular places are located directly across the beautiful Condor Peak Proposed Wilderness Area. The Wildwood Picnic Area will be opened to the public starting April 1st and the Forest Service really needs our help in getting this place ready for the visiting families. Vogel Flats is open year-round and is a popular place for urban families. Please join and help restore these special places. Meet at 8:30 am at the Wildwood Picnic Area. For directions and more information please contact Juana Torres at juana.torres@sierraclub.org or at (213) 38-6528 x 226.

San Gabriel River Restoration Project
East Fork of the San Gabriel River
Join us and help remove visitor created dams on the east fork of the San Gabriel River. These dams prevent the natural flow of the stream and endanger native fish species. We will get our feet wet as we walk in the river and help destroy dozens of user-created dams. Please RSVP to Juana at juana.torres@sierraclub.org and she will send you more details.
