**NOTE: This session is limited to 15 participants. If you are not registered and there are 15 participants, you will be asked to come another time or will be given a different assignment.

Meet the Ijams Natural Resource Management team at Mead's Quarry Adventure Camp by 9:30 am and then hike to the Ross Marble Quarry Loop to remove some non-native invasive plants. Gloves and tools will be provided, but please wear closed-toed shoes, pants, long-sleeved shirts (protection from thorns and poison ivy), and BRING WATER!

Please bring the following: water, appropriate clothing/footwear, and a mask if you have one (the Ijams Visitor Center has simple disposable masks if you come without one).

Tools and gloves will be provided.
