2008 P4C EVENTS
 Dolores Public Lands Pulling For Colorado Day 

We had a good turn out for our event. 

Our event began at 8:30 am at the Dolores Public Lands Office on the San Juan National Forest and BLM.  

 

 

Folks gathered made their lunches and we had some education from our weed specialist Roger Baker.
Roger Baker then took us out to the field and showed us first hand the types of weeds we were looking for. 
We then divided into our 4 groups, each group having a weed specialist with them and dispersed.
 
 
 
We reconvened at the Public Lands Office at 2 pm for homemade brownies, lemonade, picture taking of our stash and drawing for prizes and of course the wonderful T-shirts. Seven of our 22 were youth, and excited about the project.
A total of 22 folks pulled 65 bags full of Knapweed and Musk Thistle. We estimated approximately, 3250 noxious weeds!!!
