National Public Lands Day, Saturday 9/29

[scoutabout]

I'm sure everyone already has plans for National Public Lands Day considering how environment-conscience everyone is here. But, if you still don't have plans, then come out to AF Canyon and help wrangle in those nasty OHV users.

National Public Lands Day - September 29, 2007

It's time for National Public Lands Day (NPLD) 2007! Like last year, U4WDA and our member clubs are organizing projects across the state. The group project will be focused on clean-up and maintenance activities in American Fork Canyon. The project will start at Tibble Fork Reservoir at 9:00 AM, and we should be done before 2:00 PM.

Every volunteer will receive a free NPLD t-shirt thanks to U4WDA sponsors Teraflex Manufacturing, Teraflex Plus, Six States Distributors, and Tom Wood's Custom Driveshafts.. In addition, each volunteer will receive a free one-day pass valid for one year to gain access to any National Park, BLM or Forest Service Fee Area.

Please join us for this fun and important project. Media will be on hand to cover the story, so we need as many volunteers as possible to get the press coverage we need for the 4x4 cause.

Important Information
Wear PANTS and SHOES (no shorts, flip-flops or sandals). This is a requirement of the Forest Service.

Bring work gloves (cheap gloves are available for $2 at Harbor Freight).

Bring plenty of water and a lunch.
