And this just came in to my inbox... from the FS.... So there may be more than trash pickup... If you can help, great! If not, no worries.
Hi Everyone - Sorry for the late timing of the update for this weekends work weekend. We'll be meeting at 9 am at the Uwharrie Hunt Camp. You may not be working on the trail you've adopted but we're stretched a bit thin with 7 people off on fire and timber details. We appreciate you coming up to volunteer this weekend. It sounds like great weather for Saturday. If you'll need campsites contact Janet Becker ASAP. Thanks.
The overall projects will be repairing corduroy crossings, armoring crossings with rock (6 to 8" size), cleaning out tail ditches with shovels and rakes, clearing any down trees and large branches, hauling out old corduroy crossings, repairing some split rail fences, and remarking trails with the diamonds and marking the numbers on the trail markers and picking up trash. If you have a trail trailer please bring it along with straps and chains to haul in supplies for the corduroy crossings and the rock armoring. Bring ratchets or wrenches and sledge hammers. I'll have some of the adopt a trail signs so we'll have them to put up for a few trails. We'll have the rock piled up in Dutch John and we'll have our tractor there to load it into people's trailers. What ever we don't finish this weekend we'll do in June, July....
