Join the City of Olympia and partners in celebrating the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. with a volunteer service project at Squaxin Park. We will be restoring crucial habitats to their intended state by removing English ivy and planting indigenous vegetation. Tools, gloves, and light refreshments will be provided. Dress for the weather and wear your boots! We will meet at a small shelter in the park's southeast area. See the map below and directional signs will be posted.
