Well that stinks. Nick, if you still want to go, let me know. I sent Eli a message just asking if they were going to plan a workday. This is his reply:
The Forest Service doesn't have any "official workdays" for this month or next month due to the heat. Usually we would have a workday anyway, we did last year because it was a mild summer. But this year with heat ranges up in the 100's I wanted to wait to see what the temps would be like. It has cooled down a little, but with the extreme humidity its still nasty outside (plus the chance of t-storms everyday).
My personal opinion with the heat and humidity (and t-storms everyday) its just not worth doing a workday. Not a lot of people show up, and by early afternoon its just muggy and nasty outside. You or anyone else that wants to sign in with Janet Becker at Arrowhead can show up and pickup trash etc and get the volunteer hours counted. If you have any more questions just let me know.
Thanks,
-Eli
