Trail Work

We normally schedule volunteer trail improvement work for one Saturday or Sunday morning each month, under the direction of our project leaders Mike Ott and Joe Castagnola. Currently scheduled work dates are listed below. Anyone who might be interested in participating should contact Mike at mikeott52@aol.com or 302-738-6652. Persons on his list will be notified a week or so in advance of specific upcoming projects.

There are all sorts of tasks for all sorts of folks - you don't have to be 6'2" and 200 pounds as you can see here.
