RESCHEDULED DUE TO RAIN! FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY LOOKS WET WET, SO WE’RE PIVOTING TO THE SAME TIME SUNDAY. IT’S BETTER FOR THE TRAIL AND SURE TO BE MORE ENJOYABLE FOR ALL OF YOU!

Join us for an introduction to trail building at Wesserunsett Stream Preserve on National Trails Day!

Rachel Cheatham-McFadden will lead a trail-building how-to that will include leveling and widening tread, removing stumps, eliminating brush, and side-hill digging. Participants will work on the preserve’s yellow trail, which needs a partial relocation due to steep grades and habitat protection. 

This event is open to individuals of all ages, but participants should expect physical labor, fun, but sometimes challenging work, and a great time! This event will be followed up with a tailgate potluck.

Tools and personal protective equipment (such as work gloves and eye-protection) will be provided by Somerset Woods Trustees, although participants are encouraged to bring their own if they have them. All participants should expect to sign a waiver upon arrival.
