Peachtree Rock cleanup is planned Saturday

Volunteers are invited to pitch in Saturday at Peachtree Rock Preserve in Lexington County for a cleanup and other maintenance. It's part of Keep the Midlands Beautiful's third Saturday monthly cleanup events. This weekend's event, from 9 a.m.-noon, is in partnership with the S.C. chapter of the Nature Conservancy.

Trash bags, bug spray, water and latex gloves will be provided. Volunteers should wear sturdy, closed-toed shoes, dress for the weather, and bring work gloves if they have them.

Registration is not required.

A naturalist will lead volunteers on a nature walk of the Preserve after our work is done.

For other details and directions, see www.keepthemidlandsbeautiful.org or call (803) 733-1139.
