Seeking Volunteers for Trails Work Party

Posted October 16, 2017 at 5:46 am by

The San Juan Island Trails Committee is looking for some volunteers to help out with some trail maintenance on the Airport Trail in town, on Tuesday, Oct. 17th from 2:00 to 5:00 pm. Park at the Skagit Valley College parking lot where we’ll meet/sign in.

Clothing: Bring eye protection please and wear sturdy clothing as we will cut brush and blackberries and do some shovel/spade work to level the trail. GOOD protective shoes and leather gloves are necessary.

Equipment to bring: Bring any non-motorized hand tools useful for shrub/brush/berry cutting and removal such as loppers, shears, rakes, etc. More soft tine and hard tine rakes are needed. We’ll use a new small, lightweight electric hedge trimmer that works really well on blackberries.

You can support the San Juan Update by doing business with our loyal advertisers, and by making a one-time contribution or a recurring donation.
