Pedalers,
I just spoke with Mary Ann Hamilton with the Forest Service. We had
originally agreed to lead a trail maintenance project on Gold Hill Trail #3
that day. For us to do this, we need to have someone from the club step
forward and shepherd this project. Will it be you?
The project:
==============
Basically, the project would consist of assembling a trail crew with tools
and doing the same kind of trail maintenance that we did earlier this year
on the Mineral Point trail (cut back overgrowth, remove troublesome stumps
and rocks, clean the tread and work on corners). Then, of course, ride the
trail with pride of ownership!!
Mary Ann will not be able to attend as she is leaving tomorrow morning for
Mississippi to aid in the disaster recovery efforts and will return only in
time to participate in the Mickinnick Trail Open House which will be
occurring also on the 24th.
So if you wish the club to participate in Public Lands Day, consider
stepping up to lead the effort. Please reply to the list letting everyone
know you are interested and then others, I'm quite sure will step up to
help. If no one steps forward to lead this, it may very well not happen.
