National Trails Day is Saturday, June 5th!

There is no better way to show your love and appreciation of our trails, be they paved, gravel or dirt, then by helping to work on them. The Woodland Trail Greenway Association has a number of small work parties at 9AM this Saturday and a celebration at noon as well:

Olympia: Put mulch mats on our newly-planted trees at the Fones Road Crossing of the Woodland Trail.  Contact Jack Horton (360)789-0944.

Lacey: Invasive species removal at Woodland Creek Community Park at the east end of the Woodland Trail. Contact Lori Flemm (360)701-6814.

Thurston County: Invasive species removal at the Chambers Lake Trailhead of the Chehalis Western Trail. Contact Kerry Hibdon at (360)867-2181.

Celebration at NOON: Wrap-up at the "T" intersection between the Woodland Trails and the Chehalis Western Trail for light snacks and a celebration.

  Enjoy the trails: ride your bike or longboard; skate or walk.  Just get to the intersection of the Woodland Trails and the Chehalis Western Trail by Noon! If you are not familiar with this location, call Jack Horton (360)789-0944 for directions.

Alternately, if you prefer off-road trail work, volunteer with Friends of Capitol Forest to make new sanctioned trails, and repair storm-damaged ones; FOCF will soon be building a bridge out of modular parts volunteers carry in -- cool! Drop them an email if you'd like to help out.

Thanks to all the volunteers out there. Happy National Trails Day!
