Join Philadelphia Parks and Recreation's Stewardship Team&nbsp;for a volunteer workday at Parkside-Evans Rec Center Trail on Monday, September 28th, from 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM. We will meet at the trail entrance just east of the Rec Center (<a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/rdKBpkkNuAw9DeuM6" target="_blank">see location here</a>) and work along the trail to remove trash and clear overgrown plants, particularly invasive species.&nbsp;
This volunteer event is open to people of all abilities. Anyone interested is welcome to participate but please be advised that bathrooms nearby are not guaranteed. Please bring water, sunscreen, and snacks as needed! We will provide the appropriate tools.&nbsp;
This event will be cancelled in the event of heavy rain or thunder or severe weather conditions.
