Thursday, November 12

Mid-November is a wonderful time to visit Bayshore Preserve and a Stewardship Party is the perfect opportunity to get to know the land! Bayshore Preserve is located on the western shore of Oakland Bay, on Puget Sound. This preserve contains the lower portion of Johns Creek, where Chum Salmon return each fall around November! Volunteers will assist in removing invasive Himalayan blackberry along trails.

Group sizes will be capped at 10 people total, so it is very important to RSVP all guests for this event.

Thursday, November 12
10:00 am – 2:00 pm
Bayshore Preserve, Shelton, Mason County

Volunteers must fill out an annual Volunteer Waiver before volunteering with CLT. Minors must be accompanied by an adult or have both pages of the Minor Waiver Release Form filled out ahead of time. You may print and fill out your waiver ahead of time and bring to the event or send us a photo of your completed waiver. We will also have extra waivers at the event. Waivers and questions can be emailed to americorps@capitollandtrust.org.
