In celebration of the recently designated Chuckwalla National Monument, BLM's Palm Springs South Coast Field Office will host a National Public Lands Day event at Cottonwood Springs. Our goal is to not only educate our volunteers of the significance of the Chuckwalla National Monument but also to improve upon the recreational opportunities there. Additionally, Cottonwood Springs serves as the WWII historical site Camp Young, so we will provide an overview of this history as part of our clean up efforts.
