Many thanks to St. Joe’s Providence Nursing Leadership and all who joined our monthly workday on Sept. 7th.
Also, big shout-out to the Delta Force for completing a drain lense project last week on the upper Redwood Acres Loop Trail! There is so much great work happening out here!

As we reach the peak of trail-building season,
we’re looking forward to our next monthly trail workday
in the McKay Community Forest:
 
Saturday, Oct. 5th

9:00 AM – 12:00 PM

📍Meet at Redwood Fields on Fern St. (off Walnut Drive) in Cutten, at the storage container adjacent to the parking lot at 9:00 AM to collect tools & supplies while reviewing workday guidelines before we head out on the trails.

☀️We work rain or shine and are looking forward to a “mostly sunny” week, with a forecasted high of 62 degrees on Saturday. So let’s get out there and make the most of this gorgeous fall weather, before the muddy rain season hits us! 

General Volunteering Guidelines:

  • Volunteers should wear appropriate work clothing, boots and bring a small day pack for carrying food and water as the varying project locations will require hiking to access (.5 mi to 2 mi generally). 
  • Volunteers are encouraged to arrive 5 mins early so that enough tools and food can be made available for all.
  • All new volunteers are required to sign a one-time liability release form that will cover all subsequent workdays.
  • All tools, gloves, trail and safe working techniques training will be provided by Humboldt County and VTS.

Thank you all so much — See you on the trails! 🌲☀️

Volunteer Trail Stewards Coordinator
