About This Event
Help us build a brand new trail system at The Ridge! Join us for this work session and get a sneak peek of a property that’s not yet open to the public. Volunteers will help protect the valuable habitat on this property by constructing sustainable and strategically-planned sections of trail. This will create access and help guide future use on this property while protecting the most vulnerable parts of the special habitats found here.

The Basics:

GTRLC will supply gloves and tools. We will teach you everything you need to know about tool use, safety, and trail maintenance. No prior experience necessary! This will be a moderately strenuous work session, with volunteers carrying and using hefty trail tools. Participants will be hiking up to 2 miles of trail at a moderate pace. Lighter tasks such as vegetation trimming with loppers will be available.

Registration is appreciated but is not required. Cancellations due to weather or any other reason will be communicated with registered participants via email.

Thank you for your interest in joining us! If you have any questions, please contact Erica DesJardins at edesjardins@gtrlc.org or 231-929-7911 (ext. 316).
