Trail Work Schedule:
Friday March 28th: Meet at Stokesville Campground at 3pm. We will park by the entrance of the Girl Scout Parking Lot and hike to the work location on Lookout Mountain. If you can’t make it at 3pm please feel free to come later but remember to bring two tools from the”Big Red” Truck.
Saturday March 29th 9am-5pm : Our first crew will leave Stokesville Campground at 9am and do the same access as Friday.  We will have a second crew leave from the Stokesville Campground at 1pm as well.  Feel free to come to the work site (hiking or biking in) anytime during the day. Even a 3o minute trail effort during your ride goes a long way!
Sunday March 30th TBD:  There will  be a trail work component on Sunday. This will be building some new trails at the  Stokesville Campground.

Trail Work Details:
