Get some fresh air and exercise… and give back to an amazing park that serves tens of thousands of visitors each year.
You will be helping to care for the trails by improving erosion structures, raking and digging out the ditches next to trails or cutting brush. Your work will keep the trails from eroding and make sure people can explore the park.
