The REI Community Service Day at Arastradero Preserve is fast approaching. We'll be working with REI and the Arastradero Preserve Stewardship Project on Saturday, October 27 from 9-2 to close and restore an unwanted trail, as well as improve drainage on a segment of Acorn trail before winter sets in. Other volunteers will be working on habitat restoration and other activities. REI will supply food and other goodies afterward. Please sign up will be through REI by either calling the REI Special Events Department at 510-527-7377 or email Jason at jfleshe@rei.com. Please see the flyer posted on our site for more details. Mark it on your calendar and join us for great day at Arastradero.
