Volunteer Work Projects - Minimum age 14 with accompanying adult

This is the rescheduled Earth Day Trail Work event, but anyone is welcome to sign up! Let's do some trail work! We're hosting our first public trail work event for the year at our most popular project site- Rabbit Mountain. Our mission for the day is to reduce the amount of mud on the trail. Join us as we dig drainages, armour muddy sections with rock quarried onsite, close down unnecessary trail braiding, and perform restoration on heavily impacted areas. With your help we hope to reduce the number of days trails are closed due to excessive mud. Difficulty: Moderate. Project will involve hiking over uneven terrain and using various hand tools. A variety of additional tasks should be expected. Trail work is a workout- expect to get covered in dirt, sweat a bit, and have a good time. PLEASE NOTE if the trail is wet and cannot be driven on, participants will have to hike up to 1 mile to get to the projects site (and an additional 1 mile back at the end). The hiking time is included in the project time. All necessary personal protective equipment will be provided by Boulder County, but volunteers should prepare themselves by bringing the following: -Water bottle and water -Sturdy shoes/boots -Backpack (for carrying clothes/water) -Pants are highly recommended -Layers of clothes -Rain gear -Snacks Lunch will be provided! Every participant must fill out a waiver prior to the event. Please take 2 minutes and click the Waiver link below. Participants must be 12 years of age or older, and anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Full instructions will be sent out 1 week prior to the event. Until then, feel free to reach out to Jo Daloisio (Volunteer Coordinator) at [email protected] or 720-591-0721. Looking forward to working with you!
