Saturday, March 28, 2026: 10:30am – 12 noon
Hello Hilltoppers: last weekend’s volunteer event was a success — over 3 days, 18 adults and teenagers showed up to cut branches, stack logs and clear brush — well done!
Let’s do this again! We’ll be clearing more brush at the Prisoners Pond forest regeneration site this-coming Saturday March 28, 10:30am to 12noon. All are welcome, teens and up (it’s a great way to knock off some community / environmental service hours). Those of you who’ve participated in the past know that this is simple work, but be prepared to get dirty. I’ll have tools and some extra gloves, but if you have them, bring loppers and / or pruning saws, work / gardening gloves, and of course sturdy shoes and drinking water.
The work location is is the same — in the woods very near the equipment sheds on the eastern side of Verona’s Freedom Field. If driving, turn north onto White Rock Road, and park in one of the two ballfield parking lots. Then walk east along the Freedom Field service driveway to the sheds (downhill). If you’re already familiar with Verona streets, it might even be easier / less of a walk to park along Linn Drive near Veterans Field and just enter the Hilltop via the footbridge and trail near the 3rd baseline, then walk north / uphill from there to the site.
Please text me in advance so I know to expect you. See you then! TMT
