Restore Riparian Habitat on San Antonio Creek in the Jemez!

• What we'll do
Join AWF for a volunteer restoration project in the Jemez!

LOCATION: We'll be working along a creek in the Jemez. Directions and details to the camping area will be sent upon your RSVP.

THE PROJECT: We'll build Beaver Dam Analogs to help improve the health of San Antonio Creek in the Jemez.

SCHEDULE: Friday, June 20 – Sunday, June 22

We will meet at the campsite on Friday evening. On Saturday morning, AWF will provide coffee, breakfast burritos, and an orientation. We will work Saturday from about 8:30-4:00, and then enjoy a potluck dinner (AWF provides bison or veggie burgers). On Sunday, anyone who is able to stay will work for a few more hours, and we will finish up by noon.

Please note that volunteers do not need to be present for the entire weekend to participate. You are welcome to join us just for the work day Saturday, or camp for just one of the two nights.

• What to bring
GEAR: Bring everything you need for a weekend of camping. For the work, don’t forget gloves, hat, long sleeves, long pants, sturdy boots, and sunscreen. Warm clothes for the evenings and plenty of water are essential. This is New Mexico, so sun, rain, overcast sky and wind or a mix of it all are to be expected.

FOOD: AWF will provide breakfast burritos on Saturday morning and bison or veggie burgers on Saturday evening. Please bring a dish to share for the Saturday potluck dinner, along with your own lunches, snacks, Friday dinner, and lots of water!
