News for The Big Pull that was scheduled for March 7 in Round Rock:
With thunderstorms looking ever more likely for Saturday organizers of The Big Pull are rescheduling the invasives removal to March 21, same time of day and place. WCCF is sending out an email to those who have already signed up. If you haven’t signed up yet, the signup link is below in the 2nd part of this post. Folks are sorry for the reschedule but it seemed like the safer alternative!
The original announcement is below for your convenience (highlighted where info has changed).
The Good Water Master Naturalists are supporting the Native Plant Society of Texas by joining them for The Big Pull! Let’s make an impact during National Invasive Species Week by removing invasive species and supporting healthy native ecosystems at the park by our iconic Round Rock on Saturday, March 7 March 21, 9am-12pm.
Williamson County Conservation Foundation is taking care of sign up since it’s part of their responsibility so we’ll be signing up on their website. If you’re new to volunteering with them, every participant will need to sign the WCCF waiver before participating. (It is good for the rest of the calendar year in case you want to volunteer with WCCF again.) All are welcome, bring friends and family members if they want to join in on the fun.
