We’ll meet this Sunday, July 11th at 10:00 am at the end of Chevelle Drive of Candler Road  (see directions below). This is the South trailhead for Dearborn Park. This park, though small, is a haven for wildlife and holds at least one small remnant of the original forest. We’ll focus on Japanese Chaff Flower removal and learn a bit more about this special forest.

Please note Friends of Dearborn Park is not a sponsor as we are prohibited from any activities because we are part of Park Pride and DeKalb County Park and Rec
