Posted on February 17, 2020 by Gary Haliski

Saturday, March 14th
9:00 am – noon
Ferndale Park (364 Ferndale Dr)

Ferndale is one of our largest storm water facilities. Learn about how the city helps filter rainwater.  Then we’ll pitch in by clearing extra vegetation and weeds to make sure water flows freely and is filtered before it enters our rivers.

This is a family-friendly event – no experience necessary. Please RSVP so we can be sure to have plenty of tools, gloves and refreshments. RSVP to Danielle Klinkebiel, 541-510-9318 or dklinkebiel@eugene-or.gov
