The Lands Council is sponsoring five local sites around Spokane to celebrate their second annual Reforest Spokane Day on October 27th. The Sunflower Society is hoping to make a good showing of volunteers at the Slavin Conservation Area to help plant native trees and plants. Please bring your own shovels and work gloves for the big kids and little kids. The Lands Council aslo asks that we bring a few gallons of water if possible to help in the planting process. The Slavin Conservation area is only a few miles South of Spokane off of the west side of Hwy 195. This is a great area to hike with children because it is flat, accessible in all four seasons, and is full of wetlands with lots of great birds and wildlife to see. If you are planning on coming please go and register HERE on the Lands Council's Webpage. Don't forget to dress appropriately for the weather. Late October can make the weather an important factor to consider.
