We have been working with the Coalition for Sonoran Desert Protection and the Tucson Audubon Society to install native plants adjacent to the wildlife crossing at the Santa Catalina Catholic Church to protect wildlife from parking lot headlights.

PROJECT SCHEDULE & LOCATION
Meet at 9:00 a.m. at the Santa Catalina Catholic Church, located at 14380 N Oracle Rd, Tucson, AZ 85739. There is plenty of parking! We will work throughout the day with a break for lunch and wrap up by around 3:00 p.m.
THE WORK
Our tasks will involve putting the finishing touches on our project – moving landscape rocks into place, installing a few more native plants, ensuring plants are getting irrigation water and protection. Volunteers do not need to have prior training to participate. Sky Island Alliance will provide all tools and instruction as well as extra copies of our volunteer waivers which need to be signed by each participant only once per calendar year.
WHAT TO BRING
- Water, snacks, and lunch.
- Sturdy footwear (ex. hiking boots) with closed toes is encouraged as are rain gear and sun protection (ex. wide-brimmed hat, sunblock, long sleeved shirt and long pants)
