The Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana (CRCL) invites you to participate in a wetland restoration project that will create sand dunes along the Cameron Shoreline in Southwest Louisiana. This area provides essential protection for Louisiana's inland communities and wetlands, and it was severely impacted by recent hurricanes. Volunteers will install 9,000 feet of sand fencing during this 3 day event. This project will assist in stabilizing and capturing sand in the hopes of building dunes. In addition, the project will also create wildlife habitat and increase species diversity.
Where: |
Cameron Shoreline - Long Beach Road (10 miles west of Holly Beach, LA) |
When: |
Thursday June 14th, Friday June 15th, and Saturday June 16th |
9:00 a.m. to no later than 4:00 p.m. |
|
Sign up to volunteer for only one day or multiple days! |
All equipment (shovels, gloves, hammers, etc.) will be provided.
Lunch and drinks will be provided to all volunteers.
Minimum age for volunteers is 13, but all minors must be accompanied by an adult.

You can complete an online registration form at the www.crcl.org, click on the registration link above, or call the Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana at 1-(888)-LACOAST for more information.
Directions and additional information will be provided to registered volunteers via email a few days prior to the event.
