Volunteers are needed to join King County Parks staff and fellow community members to help make Dick Thurnau Memorial Park a healthier forest this Saturday, April 1.

The event begins at 9 a.m., with goals of digging out an invasive weed called English ivy (not poison ivy!), with wrap up by 1 p,m.

“Our goal is to help increase the plant diversity in the Park so it can be a healthier place for people and animals to enjoy. We will also have some environmental education about the important role our forests and parks play in White Center.”

Event is free and all are welcome!

Dick Thurnau Park – formerly Lakewood Park – is located at SW 108th St and 10th Ave SW (map below).
