Registration deadline: Sep. 15^th

Join us for a hands-on effort to protect the beautiful grounds of the Sisters of St. Francis! The Spotted Lanternfly is an invasive insect that threatens trees, gardens, and natural ecosystems across Ohio. By spending just a few hours searching for and removing these pests, you can make a meaningful difference for the health of our campus landscape. Whether you're passionate about conservation, curious about invasive species, or simply looking for a fun way to give back, this volunteer opportunity is a chance to learn, connect with others, and take direct action for creation care. Every lanternfly removed helps protect native plants, wildlife habitat, and the ecological future of our campus. Come ready to explore, stomp, and be part of a community working together to care for our common home.

We will meet outside the Franciscan Center (Building 4 on the campus map here).
