Whistler Woods habitat restoration workday on Sat. 6/10 - CANCELLED

Just got a CANCELLATION notice from the workday leader. :(  Workday at Dan Ryan Woods is still on, so you if you want to get a dose of nature, I hope you'll go there instead.

It's great to get outdoors. Volunteers are needed on Saturday 6/10 from 10 am to 1 pm for a habitat restoration workday - invasive species removal.  Light snacks and water will be available. This is rescheduled from 6/3.



Hiking boots or other boots or shoes that offer good support and traction are a good idea. When you arrive, look for volunteers along the lefthand side of the main parking lot, near the end of the parking lot. If you have work gloves, bring them, otherwise gloves will be available.  

How to get there:   Whistler Woods is just east of 13400 S Halsted in Riverdale.

By bike: if you're coming from the north, ride the Major Taylor Trail south until it ends in Whistler Woods and continue to the parking lot to find the volunteers.

By car: take Halsted to Forestview (13400S) - parking lot is the first left turn after you turn east onto Forestview.

From I-57, exit at eastbound 127th, then turn right on Halsted, then continue to 13400S and follow the directions above.

From I-94, exit at westbound 130th.  Continue past the viaduct, right (northbound) on Indiana, then continue left on 127th. Follow the directions above.

By transit:  Pace 352 Halsted bus
