Hello fellow GCC members. Please join us this Saturday, July 14, at 9:00 A.M. for a workday at San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park. Work is still needed due to tropical storm Debbie, plus it's the growing season, so help on Saturday would be appreciated. The trails are built and maintained by volunteers. Typical work days include clearing and maintaining existing trails, and improving the park's facilities. After the workday, lunch is provided. Bring small hand tools if you have them (loppers, pruning shears, hand saws) and gloves, sunscreen, bug repellent, water bottle, and good humor! Meet at the CSO building at park headquarters (12720 NW 109th LN, Alachua). See below for directions.

Directions: From Gainesville: Go north on CR 241 and just after the I-75 overpass, turn right on NW 109th Lane. Go 1.1 miles on NW 109th Lane to a break in a black 4 rail fence on the left (east) side of the road. At the official state park sign, turn left. Drive past a horse paddock and pole barn to the metal CSO building. From Alachua: Go south on CR 241 until just before the I-75 overpass. Turn left on NW 109th Lane and continue as above.

Hope to see you in the park!
