RiverLands Volunteer Workday

Event details

Volunteers will be led by TPL staff to prepare the RiverLands Trailhead Park site for guided tours and events while we begin the design of the site. Volunteers will be removing invasive plants including privet and vines and other under story plants in work area, clearing trails, making and installing signs, removing trash, and/or spreading mulch. The volunteers will use shovels along with hand pulling, and other small equipment such as weed eaters, blowers, weed wrenches, and pruners as they are comfortable.

While you are there, guides will lead you to points along the RiverLands site, where the Trust for Public Land and Cobb County will build a portion of a 2.7-mile section of greenway trail, trailheads, overlooks, and other amenities.

Meeting point coordinates: 33.780097, -84.534521

This site does not have an address. It is located at the intersection of Discovery Blvd. and Mableton Pkwy. There is a driveway entrance on Mableton Pkwy just west of the river. Please pull into the site to make room for other vehicles.

Look for a TPL sign along the road.

We suggest volunteers wear long pants, long sleeves, comfortable shoes, and sun protection, and bring water and gloves (if you have them).
