Program areas at LBOLA
LBOLA uses adult volunteers and paid interns, primarily in the summer, to preserve, protect and restore the open spaces and natural areas in and around Lake Bluff, IL. Workers use chain saws, brush saws and loppers to clear away invasive plants, use herbicides to control re-sprouts and use controlled burning techniques to revitalize the natural seed bed. The largest portion of the expenses is for the wages, payroll taxes, workers compensation and other insurance costs to protect the high school and college age interns and high school student volunteers that assist during the school year. Additional costs include restoration and maintenance equipment, equipment maintenance costs, purchases of plants and seeds and the printing and postage costs of newsletter mailings to our members.
