Adopt-a-Trail Workday

Saturday, May 17, 2006, 9:00 AM - around 2:00 PM

It will be time for a little Spring cleaning on our adopted trails-the Weston Lake Trail and the Oakridge Trail. Memorial Day weekend is the busiest weekend of the year at the Park, and we would like to have the trails looking good for our visitors. We will be clearing the trails of fallen limbs, and intruding branches, vines and cane; there is always a lot of spring growth to cut back.

We will meet at the Visitor's Center at 9 AM to organize ourselves into separate work groups and distribute gear. We should finish anywhere from 1 PM (Weston Lake Loop trail) to 2 PM (Oakridge Trail). Work gloves, long pants, light hiking boots, water, and a snack are recommended. If you have loppers, long-handled shears (good for switch cane) or bow saws, bring them along. Please contact John Grego at work (grego@stat.sc.edu; 803-777-5110) or home (jrgrego@mindspring.com; 803-783-9270) if interested.
