WALLOWA LAKE — Fifty volunteers are being sought for a variety of projects Saturday, June 4, at Wallowa Lake State Park, according to a press release from the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department.

Volunteers are asked to register by June 1 online at https://tinyurl.com/parksvolunteers.

The 100 Volunteer Projects for 100 Years centennial event will set people to work alongside park staff to improve the nature trail. Work includes blocking social trails, cutting back overgrown limbs on the official trail and lining the official trail where it is hard to follow. Volunteers will work with hand tools and move on gravel and uneven surfaces. Tools and other equipment will be provided.

Volunteers should bring drinking water and wear gloves and clothes suitable for the weather conditions.
