Amador County Park Restoration seeking volunteers at Chaw’se Indian Grinding Rock State Park Posted Wednesday, June 25, 2014 9:45 PM

The Amador County Park Restoration crew has been hard at work stripping the bark from cedar and oak logs to be used as support beams in rebuilding the sacred Roundhouse.  Volunteers are requested to help with this job as they will need to strip more than 250 logs by hand before they will have enough material to begin the rebuild.  Volunteers can also help by staining the new split rail fencing that surrounds the park as well. There’s a job for just about anyone here, and we look forward to working side by side with you as we push to complete this once in a lifetime park restoration project.

Volunteers are welcome Tuesday thru Thursday from 7 a.m. until 1 p.m. and all workers will be supplied with gloves, tools, a hot lunch and a complimentary T-shirt for their efforts. Donations are appreciated and necessary to help make our parks the best they can be. Please mail your contribution to the Jackson Rancheria Park & Field Restoration Fund, C/O Venissa Morse P.O. Box 1090 Jackson CA 95642.

We hope to see you at Chaw’se Indian Grinding Rock, and we thank you in advance for helping to support our efforts.  Call (209) 223-8405 for more information.
