Team,
We had a great work day on the Buttermilk Trail on Saturday, October 10th. 
Alot of work was done by a few bodies.

Here are a few photos of our completed work.

 

Team,

Our first Team Trail Day for the 2009/2010 season will be next Saturday, October 10th.

We will be joining Nathan Burrell, Trail Manager for City of Richmond Parks and Recreation, for maintenance within the James River Park.

 

We will be working to decrease the grade of the trail, at the juncture of Buttermilk and Boulevard Bridge, by backfilling the tread and adding stone pitching to harden and give traction for hikers and bikers.

 

Work Location: Buttermilk Trail at juncture of Boulevard Bridge

Meeting Location: Reedy Creek Visitors Center

Meeting Time: 9:00 a.m.

Meeting Date: Saturday, October 10th

 

For those who cannot meet at 9:00 a.m. you can join us at the work site.

 

Remember…….bring gloves, wear sturdy shoes/boots, wear layers, bring hydration and a snack.

 

If anyone needs directions just email me back and I will provide.

 

In the case of inclement weather, I will send out an email early Saturday morning.

I will also post this information on the ASR website on the Trail Maintenance forum and blog.

 

Looking forward to seeing everyone out there.
