We welcome newcomers to our team to learn about building sustainable trails. No commitment, join us whenever you can. While doing trail maintenance, please bring gloves, water and snacks to keep your energy up and for safety, please wear long sleeves, long pants and closed-toe shoes. Tools, training and safety briefings are provided. It’s a good way to meet people, get exercise, and everyone works at their own pace and capabilities. Plus you come away with a great feeling of accomplishment.
Please forward this to family and friends who may be interested in helping a worthy endeavor. Thanks again for all your efforts and hope to see you on the trails.
