Improve a nature and recreation hotspot in San Diego. Lake Murray is a heavily used open space that provides opportunities for walking, biking, hiking, playing baseball, playing tennis, and more.

Volunteers will be clearing brush from obstructing park spaces, roadways, and parking spaces. They will also be removing invasive plants, such as foxtails, which will beautify the park and give the native plants more room to thrive.

• Attire: Sturdy, closed-toe shoes are required. Please wear long pants to protect your legs from getting scratched by brush. This opportunity takes place outdoors with little or no shade so volunteers should wear sun protection such as sunscreen and a hat.

• Bring: Reusable water bottle. Work gloves if you have them. They will be provided if needed.

• Physical Requirements: Volunteers will be standing for the duration of the shift, bending, and squatting. This project is able to make accommodations for individuals with physical limitations. The space where this project takes place is wheelchair accessible.
