To exercise caution and health and to prevent the spread of COVID-19, our monthly meetings have been cancelled. Many of our volunteers are over 60 and we want to be proactive! We will communicate by FB or e-mail as our trail work continues.
As for workday, we encourage all to pick a day and go work on the trail: cut vines and branches within 6 feet of the trail, pick up trash now before overgrowth hides it, use the trail, exercise and have fun! Our work continues, thank you for your understanding!
