Circuit Trails Maintenance Workshop Registration
|
The Circuit Trails Coalition is hosting a practical Trail Maintenance Workshop for all who work with or love trails. This event is designed for volunteers, professionals, and community groups alike. It will feature a morning classroom session and 2-afternoon outdoor hands-on sessions led by regional trail and recreation experts. The outdoor sessions will cover practical topics on trail maintenance, such as stormwater management, vegetation (invasive and native) management, and volunteer recruitment and management for paved, gravel, and natural surface trails.
The event, sponsored by the Clean Air Council, is scheduled from 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM (lunch included) at Cobbs Creek Community Environmental Center in Cobbs Creek Park.
