Join Hydrophiles as we volunteer with the OSU Center for Civic Engagement at MacDonald Dunn Forest on MLK Day, January 19th, 2013!

The CCE has 8 fantastic projects to choose from. You can volunteer for any of the projects, but  a group of Hydrophiles members will be helping out with trail resurfacing at MacDunn, so sign up for that option if you want to join us!

We'd love to have a big group of Hydrophiles all working together.

Plus, you'll get free breakfast and lunch!

All volunteers will  meet at McAlexander Fieldhouse to check in between 8:30 and 9am. Continental breakfast and hot tea/coffee will be available in the morning and hot soup and bread will be provided when you return from your projects between 1 and 1:30pm! Food is being provided by the Student Events & Activities Center and Cultural Meals Program.

24 volunteers needed - 8692 Peavy Arboretum Dr., Corvallis

Trail re-surfacing project: involves the addition of gravel to existing trails within the Arboretum to facilitate interpretive access throughout the extensive trail network. Work involves using power gravel carriers, shovels, rakes and other trail tools to create a high quality / low maintenance trail surface. Please be sure to wear clothes that are appropriate for the weather and that can get dirty and will keep you warm and dry. Please bring layers, rain gear (jackets, pans, shoes), and closed toe, sturdy shoes. To volunteer, please register here.
