The Alpine Watershed Group will be hosting the 18th annual Markleeville Creek Day on Sept. 9. 

Each year this event allows for the completion of important watershed restoration work. 

Volunteers are needed to help complete projects throughout the East and West Carson Watersheds including plantings, stream bank stabilization, invasive weed removal, protective tree wrapping, and storm drain stenciling. No experience is necessary.

Meet at the Markleeville Library Park (270 Laramie St.) at 9am for registration and introductions. Groups then carpool to their restoration project locations. 

The Alpine Watershed Group is a non-profit organization whose mission is to protect and enhance Alpine County watersheds.
