Make sure you wear clothes that you will not mind getting dirty or damaged. Dress in layers so that you can easily adjust for different temperatures and working both indoors and outside. Raingear - we will work rain or shine. Work gloves will be beneficial if you have them. Habitat will have some goggles, but not enough to go around.
Sunglasses are a good alternative.
Hat and sunscreen for outdoor work. We will be providing baseball caps for all volunteers. A first aid kit will be present on-site and a telephone will be available for emergency use. It's not a bad time to update your tetanus shot. Remember that adults need a booster every ten years.
