The Linear Parks and Trails team is leading Second Saturdays, an ongoing volunteer opportunity to learn about trail building and maintenance and make a difference in the community!
We will use hand tools like loppers, clippers, handsaws, hedge trimmers, and shovels to clean and maintain trail segments, remove invasive species, install signage and a variety of other projects.
Each month will vary depending on program needs. You can expect to walk at least a mile, see wildlife, get sweaty and strong, learn, and hang out with fun people,
You will receive an email with details by the Wednesday before the event with specific instructions. Reach out if you don't get an email by then!
