This weekend, volunteers will be helping to root out invasive species at Meridian Habitat Park. Here's how to get involved.
PUYALLUP, WA — Want to give back to your community this weekend? Here's one opportunity.
Pierce County is seeking volunteers to help out this Saturday as they clear out Meridian Habitat Park. The cleanup will run from 10 a.m. to noon, during which volunteers will help the city remove some invasive species that have started to take hold in the area.
Anyone interested in helping out can register by visiting Pierce County's website, but they'll have to do it quickly — registration closes at noon on Friday. Volunteers will also be required to bring their own work gloves and snacks.
