That's right. 3days 2nights in BEAUTIFUL YOSEMITE This time the work will be on Sunday so you will have all day to play on SaturdayAlong with the group site, participants will also have the use of a free park pass for the weekend of the Event. So what's the catch? In exchange for the group site and the park pass, you will be asked to spend one day performing some menial labor(cleaning Firepits)Easy to help make Yosemite a nicer place for everyone. |

Bear
Facts: Yosemite has a bear problem. No doubt about it. All campsites in Yosemite are equipped with large metal boxes for food storage. You will be warned at the entrance station that ALL food must go in these boxes. Bears can make pretty easy work of just about every model of car. Don't take any chances; use the boxes. |

Equipment:
The Park Service will provide all the tools necessary for the project. You'll be responsible for getting yourself to the worksite, all your camping necessities, and food. Showers are available in the valley or you can use my shower if you want |
