The San Juan Mountains Association, in partnership with San Juan National Forest, will celebrate Colorado Public Lands Day with a cleanup at the McPhee Reservoir marina on Saturday, May 19, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Volunteers should bring a daypack with water and snacks, and wear long pants, sturdy shoes and gloves. Students are welcome to volunteer. Please leave pets at home. SJMA will provide a light lunch.

Colorado Public Lands Day, created in 2016 by the approval of Senate Bill 21, is celebrated the third Saturday in May. Colorado Public Lands Day is a chance to get outside and enjoy our unparalleled wild places and to give back to the public lands that provide us with so much.
