Volunteer Work Days:
This Fall, with your help, we plan to continue work on projects: rebuild sections of the Thompson Creek Trail, and build the new section on Meadowood West. Trail building, earthwork, carpentry, leaf raking, rock work, landscaping trash pickup: come help us out...our volunteer work is a great way to get some outdoor exercise, work in some beautiful settings, learn some new skills, and make a contribution to your public lands that will benefit the community.
Volunteers should wear sturdy shoes and work clothes, and bring their lunch. Volunteers under 15 and under should be with a parent or adult supervisor who can sign their volunteer form. BLM will provide drinks and snacks. We won't work if it's raining or snowing.
