Falls Lake MST - Trails Day report
We had 70 volunteers out working at Falls Lake this past Saturday - what a HOT Day! We put in over 550 hours of work in one day on the MST!
We built about 1 mile of trail, 3 boardwalks, and carried two dump truck loads of trash out of the woods. We had a cookout afterwards courtesy of the Corps of Engineers. Bruce Wisely received a plaque from the Army Corps - Partnership Award for all of his hard work at Fall Lake - Congrats Bruce!
Thanks to Parks and Rec for allowing us to use the shelter for free at Rolling View. FYI - if you would like to camp out the same weekends as we work at Falls Lake - Rolling View will allow you to camp for free since we are working on the Falls Lake Trail. Prior arrangements will need to be made for this - so please plan ahead as needed.
Thanks to Wildlife for the truck to remove trash - we have about 2 more loads to go.
Next workday is July 19, 2008 - Let’s hope its cooler than 102.
Thanks to everyone that worked on the MST at Falls Lake - what a great National Trails Day!
