Sign up to help out at our Summer Solstice event at Van Bibber Park, June 25th. Many of the parks natural surface trails have been impacted by erosion, which can cause visitors to create "social" trails on either side of an existing trail, lead to water quality issues and can be harmful to native vegetation. Volunteers will help construct a new section of trail as well as restore the existing trail and other nearby social trails. No experience is necessary. Volunteers age 14 and up are welcome. Register today!
