On Thursday, September 12 volunteers are needed to cut out a patch of Arundo at Hap Magee Ranch Park. The lead agency on this opportunity is the Friends of San Ramon Creek. Arundo is a bamboo-like invasive weed that needs to be cut back for the health of the creek. Volunteers will cut and haul the canes to a nearby dumpster. Volunteers need to be 14 or older, physically capable, and active.
