Please join the Department of Conservation and Recreation, and the Friends of Upton State Forest for the annual Park Serve Day spring work party at Upton State Forest on Saturday, April 26, 2014. Park Serve is a statewide day of service to give back to the parks we enjoy.
Meet at the Headquarters building near the intersection of Westborough and Southborough Roads in Upton. The GPS address is 205 Westboro Rd. Registration is at 8:30 AM. We will work until noon doing general spring cleanup, trash pick up, and other light duties to spruce up the Headquarters area. Bring hand tools such as loppers, shovels and lawn rakes. No power tools. Don’t forget insect repellant and sunscreen. Dress for work and the weather. Water, and a light lunch, will be provided for volunteers.
Youth over 12 are welcome with a parent’s signature. Youth groups are required to pre-register. A liability waiver is required for all.
