Cap Sauers Holding Saturday May 18
Margaret had a small group of volunteers who doubled up on garlic mustard and Dame's rocket, the latter found at the site of the old watchman's house, where we park, rather than in the nature preserve side of Ford Road. Better that it stays in that spot, better still should it go away completely.
Dame's rocket seems to spread rapidly and is very tough to contain. We've had it at McClaughrey Springs for quite a few years and though we pulled a lot of it, it keeps popping up. Nasty stuff.

Speaking of which... Diana hosted Southwest Interfaith Team at her site the same morning, and they also pulled Dame's rocket and garlic mustard. They're a terrific group working to foster understanding in our community, and we always appreciate their help on regular days of service.
McClaughrey Springs Nature Walk Saturday May 18
This was the second of our Spring walks with Palos Park Library's Jessica Rock and patrons, with a super turnout on a beautiful spring morning. We walked the big hill going west out of the McClaughrey lot and went through the uplands to the next trail junction before doubling back. Always a fun time - no powerwalking here, just a casual stroll in the woods.
