We’ll meet near the restroom and parking lot along 29th Ave SW, across the street from 9227 29th Ave SW. If you arrive a little later, the planting site can easily be found looking directly east from the playground and parking lot.
Register here for more details about the location. If you need additional information, contact: Ro****************@***il.com
Roxhill Park Champions meets every (corrected) second Saturday to clean litter and remove invasive plants along the park’s trails.
