    Default WBP Trailwork: Saturday 4/26 @ 9am

    We are back at Westbrook again this Saturday (4/26) building more trail. Meet in the parking lot to the south of the ball diamonds at 9:00am and we will head out to the work area shortly after.

    Bring your dirt working tools (flat shovels and rogue hoes) if you have them. If not we have enough extras for 10 people.

    Below is a map of the area we will be working in case you can't make it out at 9:00.

    Sturdy shoes, pants, gloves, and eye protection are recommended. Also remember to bring enough water because the drinking fountains were not turned on last weekend.

    Dave will be providing lunch for the volunteers once again around 12:00. Please RSVP for food estimates and bring your own beverages.

    The 102 loop is now fully connected to the 101 loop with the 205 loop fully flagged, mostly cleared, and ready for shovels. There should be at least 2 miles of trail completed on the property at this point. Dave put up some temporary signs to help mark the loops in a counter clockwise direction.

    Burn a couple of laps if you are in the area. Over the winter the moles have really churned up the trail and now plants are starting to grow up through the tread because of the low traffic. It seriously needs tires to get the trail smoothed out and to fend off the reclaiming forces of nature.
