Volunteers are invited to join Presque Isle State Park naturalists March 16 to explore and clean up Gull Point Natural Area before seasonal access closes April 1.
The work crew will clean the shoreline and trails from 9 a.m. to noon so migratory shorebirds have a pristine habitat to rest and feed during their migration season.
Registration is required; call Stacey Marendt at (814) 833-7424. Service hours are available.
The Gull Point observation deck at Presque Isle State Park has been moved from its previous site farther inland and now stands closer to the water on a part of Gull Point that has had invasive plant species removed. According to the park’s plans, the bare sandy ground surrounding the tower will regrow with native species that were overgrown with the invasive species. ANDY COLWELL/Erie Times-News file photo
