June Volunteer Community Work Day: Intro to Trail Adoption

892

Join us in celebrating National Trails Day on Saturday, June 5th from 9:00am-12:30pm. We are looking for volunteers to help maintain trails through our Adopt-a-Trail program!

Participants take responsibility for regular maintenance of a specific trail. Training is provided for all Adopters, both new and experienced, to ensure duties are performed in a safe and effective manner consistent with management objectives.  Interested volunteers will choose a preferred trail for adoption, commit for at least one year, and attend the Trail Maintenance workshop. Existing Trail Adopters can use this time to work on their trails.

The Mount Agamenticus region consists of more than 10,000 acres of forest, wetlands, ponds and streams. It takes a lot of work to care for this land and we are counting on support from volunteers to help protect this great place. The best way to get involved and make a difference is through the Community Work Days program. There’s lots of work to be done to protect the beauty and the environment of Mount Agamenticus. Come and have some fun and join us!

Please bring your daypack, hiking/work boots, water bottle, insect repellent and work gloves (we have spare gloves if you don’t have any). Tools and equipment will be provided. Light snacks and refreshments follow the event.

Youth volunteers are welcome to attend all Community Work Days, but must be accompanied by parent or guardian for the duration of the event.

Spaces are limited and registration is required.
To register, please e-mail bjankowski@yorkmaine.org.
