We are excited to announce our final Adopt A Highway Road Cleanup for 2024 scheduled for Saturday, October 12th at 8:45 am. As always we will begin our session with coffee, donuts and small talk with a start time of 9:00 AM. For your planning purposes, this is only an hour commitment with us working out one direction for 30 minutes and returning on the other side of the highway for the remaining 30 minutes. This is an excellent opportunity to get to know your fellow DHCS members as we enhance our beautiful Driftwood countryside.
The Driftwood Nature Preserve is getting a nature trail. Work continues on this project to finish emplacing large water drainage pipes, then cover the trail with weed barrier landscape fabric, and finally covering the trail in 4-6 inches of crushed limestone. Following this will be placement of the information signs and construction of an information kiosk at the trailhead. We will also trim weeds, repair and pressure wash the four trail benches and treat them with wood preservative. Please watch for announcements requesting volunteers for upcoming work.
