SMC Trail Work Volunteer Day
**TRAIL WORK** will start 2025 by making final improvements to the 2024 effort to improve drainage by rerouting the Lenape Trail north of Balls Bluff Trail. **Meet at the parking lot on Summit Crescent (off Bear Lane, see map). (Note:** Consistent, moderate rain cancels. If temperatures have been below freezing so the ground is frozen, the event is also cancelled.)

Trail work is physically challenging but very satisfying as we use hand tools to build and repair trails. Participants must be 15+ years. Those younger than 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Participants should wear long pants due to [ticks](https://www.somocon.org/?page_id=193928&fb) and sturdy shoes, and bring gloves (though backup gloves will be available). Tools, water, and a snack will be provided. (Registration is not required though if you sign up on Meetup, it helps us know how many tools to bring.)
