Perfectly Preserved
For my project I am going to volunteer at the Morongo Valley preserve for National Public Lands Day. National Public Lands Day promotes both popular enjoyment and volunteer conservation of public lands. To support this national day I will be attending a volunteer service. My teacher will give me the application for our parents to sign on September 20th, when we turn in our essay. On Saturday, September 30th from 8:00am to 2:00pm when the event takes place, my mom will be driving me to Morongo. When I arrive I will introduce myself to the park rangers.

In order to assure that I will stay as safe and productive as others I will stay on the walking paths unless told otherwise. Throughout the day while performing I will be sure to follow the procedures and be sure to have the correct equipment.The only safety equipment that may possible be needed is gloves and closed toed shoes. Overall this project will be highly successful as long as we all follow proper procedures. We will be able to make the community of the Morongo Valley preserve looking its
