Rio Reforestation
"Notice" - Change
Date changed to Saturday November 6 with rain out for November 20. Rio Grande Delta Audubon will be doing the cooking and stuffing of Hot Dogs for all the volunteer planters and helpers. I will plan on being at the Mission, Texas site about 7AM to set up the cookers to have them heated and cooking by 8AM.
Where: The Cottam Tract is south of the Town of Granjeno. From U.S. Hwy 83, go south on FM 494/S Shary Road for nearly 4.5 miles. At the Town of Granjeno, turn left/south across the floodway across from City Hall. Once on the levee, follow directional signs. |
