    Default DFP - Thurs 10/13 @ 5:30pm

    This weeks Dorrance trail work plan:

    Thursday 10/13 @ 5:30pm - Digging Trail

    Dirt working tools required. As always, I'll have extra shovels & hoes available.

    We're meeting in the central parking lot at the time listed above and working for a couple of hours. Get directions to the park here. See the map below for how to get to the work area if you can't make it that early.

    The goal for the next couple of weeks is to finish the last few segments of benching/clearing required to establish the first the loop.

    Please RSVP if you plan on coming.

    Keep an eye on this topic for weather related changes.

    Never built trail before? Click here for a quick rundown of what to expect and how to prepare. Also, bring a headlight; it's getting dark in the woods now around 7pm and we usually stay until 7:30.

    Update:
    Last Sunday we finished a long section of retaining wall along a very steep cross slope using telephone poles donated by the park.

    We had a good turnout tonight; finished 118 yards of trail. Hope you didn't miss us... Planning on being out next week at some point also if you want in on the action. PM me if you want my number.
