Below is a list of Volunteer Trail workers, without them we could never have done this
You’ll never look at a trail the same way again after you help serve our outdoor mountain biking and hiking community by volunteering with the Trail Team on an Adventure Weekend of Trail Building on several super trails in and around the MHC and surrounding areas.
Building biking and hiking trails require careful thought and planning to achieve the ultimate goal of building environmentally friendly self sustaining and exciting trails that all can enjoy. All tools and instruction will be supplied as well as drinks and lunch on longer builds.
Difficulty: This build project will entail a wide range of tasks for various skill levels. Some tasks are strenuous, such as lifting rocks, breaking tree roots, removing deadwood, while other tasks may include racking leaves and moss or hand clipping low hanging branches. Either way, plan on getting dirty and a good workout by the end of the day!
Children Policy: This event is open to ages 12 and up
Where: in MHC, Cedar Ridge Trails, Mountain Laurel Trails, Fieldale Trails and other locations to be determined. Out of town trips to support other teams and build trails include Anglers Ridge in Danville, Dehart park in Stuart and Philpot lake.
When: Work parties are scheduled and posted on our website and facebook as well as through our newsletter.
Cost: FREE Volunteer Events. Registration not required but please let us know if you will attend.
If you would like to join the team, please contact Bob Norris @ 276-340-9144
