Rooster Rock Cleanup
We are doing an early day trash clean-up next Wednesday at Rooster Rock Nude Beach on Wednesday, August 26 at 10:00 a.m. due to the expected afternoon heat. Bring bottled water, a hat, gloves and a mask. We will enforce social distancing. We will provide pick-up devices and the rangers will furnish trash bags. There will be no food sharing. For those who wish to help in eradication of invasive plant species, tools will be provided. To save from having to sign a liability/registration form on-site, you may open the word document at http://www.aanr-nw.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/AugCleanupWaiver2020.pdf , print, sign and bring to the event to give the ranger.
