CANCELLED White Rock Lake Wildfire Cleanup

UPDATE: The event has been cancelled due to concerns raised about covid protocols and the volunteer organization.

If you need to carpool, meet in front of the UNC by 6:30 AM to arrange transport to Vernon.

We need to meet at the Alliance Church in Vernon no later than 7:30 AM to debrief on the work orders they receive that day and receive equipment/lunches.

After the debrief, we will drive/carpool to the clean-up site from the work order.

We will be working primarily on:

  • removal of hazardous trees

  • removal of appliances

  • some ash sifting (if we can get enough proper PPE and training)

Volunteers need:

  • to be above the age of 18

  • to wear good protective footwear

Lunch will be provided by Samaritan's purse, but bring snacks and water if you can.

The volunteers will be split into two groups:

  • students working a half day (roughly 4 hours)

  • students working a full day (8 hours)

RSVP on Facebook and tell us which work crew you’d like to be a part of so we can prepare lunches, equipment, and rides.
