CLIP Work Party
2025-08-21 09:00 - 11:00, 2025-08-28 09:00 - 11:00 | Penny Lake Preserve
Join our Committee to Limit Invasive Plants (CLIP). CLIP work parties will take place on Thursday mornings during the months of July and August at Penny Lake Preserve. CLIP volunteers will be helping eradicate invasive shrubs and vines (bush honeysuckle, oriental bittersweet, multi flora rose, autumn olive, and Japanese barberry) on this preserve. Work will consist of pulling, cutting, and piling invasive brush that will be chipped or burned later. No prior knowledge or experience with invasive plants is needed. Training will be provided including species identification and removal techniques.
Some tools will be available, but volunteers are welcome and encouraged to bring their favorite pruning shears, loppers, or pulling/cutting devices. Long pants, long sleeve shirts, and gloves are recommended as well as bug spray and water. Your help is vital to supporting native ecosystems on our preserves! For further questions, please email Scott Peterson at speterson@bbrlt.org.

During the voyage, a BRLT representative will provide fascinating insights into the island’s rich history and unique natural features.
Once on the island, enjoy a variety of activities including five miles of picturesque hiking trails, tide-pooling, and perfect spots for picnicking. You can also visit a small rustic museum to delve deeper into the island’s storied past.
Please be aware that Damariscove Island is a nature preserve with rugged terrain and limited amenities. The only facility available is a composting toilet. The island is nearly treeless with little to no shade. Be sure to bring plenty of water, sun protection, and anything else you might need for a comfortable visit of several hours.
