Rosemont Preserve Open Gate Morning
The community is invited to take part in habitat restoration at the Rosemont Preserve.
The gate will be open from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 9; volunteers will be working on the project to improve storm water capture on the Preserve. Crescenta Valley Water District helped dig a bioswale channel; now it needs to be landscaped with native plants.
Come support this important project to help protect the long-term viability of Crescenta Valley’s groundwater basin.
The Preserve is located at the north end of Rosemont Avenue, just past the chain link fence. As street parking is limited, please park at Two Strike Park, 5107 Rosemont Ave. Those with mobility issues who require a closer parking spot should contact the Rosemont Preserve Committee.
Those planning on walking the trails should wear sturdy shoes and bring water to drink.
Rain cancels. Sorry, no pets please.
