Join us to attack the invasive blackberry and Scots broom that threaten our beautiful natural area. We’ll also remove plant protectors that are no longer needed.
Bring work gloves, garden clippers and a water bottle; bring your lunch if you’d like to relax after the work and enjoy the trail (and maybe watch the eagles!!).
We will provide weed wrenches for the BIG stuff, and lots of encouragement.

Let’s Play Something will be doing our first Funtime Festival KID FEST at the Napavine Community Park (on the baseball fields) on July 16th.
We’ll be getting doused for charity (benefiting the Youth Advocacy Center), have bounce houses from The Hop Shop (just $5 for an all day wristband to jump), balloon animals by Mr. Twister, face painting, a local business scavenger hunt, and so much more!!
Be sure to check it out! We’ll start right after the Funtime Festival parade ends, around noon (parade starts at 11am).
