Volunteers are needed to help with construction of the loop trail being built at Peace Island Medical Center. The second work party will be held on Saturday, May 25th at 9:00 am. This destination trail is also a spur off the Airport Trail section of the American Camp Trail. This project is being done by volunteer labor with materials supplied by the Peace Island Volunteer (PIV) group.
Meet by the large rock pile near far parking area. If you’re driving, enter from the San Juan Valley Road entrance. If walking, you can come in from the Airport side. Wear sturdy clothes & boots. Bring water, snacks, gloves & small hand tools, such as clippers, loppers, hand saws, rakes. Work will last approximately 3 hrs. Next work party will be Saturday June 8th, then additional ones scheduled each following Saturday. Check the PIV web site for detailed info on the trail project & work party description. Please contact volunteer co-ordinator Cinda Pierce at cpiemna [@] rockisland.com or 370-5998 to sign up or with questions. We need 10 – 15 workers each session to complete the trail this summer. Thank you!
