Press Release from Outdoors Forever Conservation Club
Pictures attached.
On Thursday, April 7th, thirty-four Mauston High School students and two of their teachers volunteered their time to assist the Outdoors Forever Conservation Club (ODF) to clear invasive plant species at the Carl Nelson property just west of Mauston. The students cut primarily invasive honeysuckle and locust. These non-native plants, will overtime, choke out the native underbrush and stunt or totally destroy natural new tree growth. The students used hand saws to cut the invasive woody plants and created brush piles that will be used by animals for shelter. ODF members then sprayed the stumps of the invasive plants with a herbicide to kill the plants so they will not regenerate. Representatives of the Bank of Mauston and Castle Rock Realty also assisted that day in picking up trash along the highway of the Carl Nelson property and then assisted in clearing the invasive plants.
The students made a significant impact to the woods in the two hours they volunteered their time. The ODF wants to thank the students for their efforts on behalf of the club’s goals for a better environment.
ODF is a county wide conservation club dedicated to the Safe, Ethical, and Wise Use of our Natural Resources. ODF owns and manages a number of properties returning them to a more natural state for the betterment of wildlife and plant species. We also focus on kid’s education including a youth day at our clubhouse grounds in April, a kid’s fisheree in February, hunter education training and youth waterfowl clinics in the fall.
