The Lower Section of the West River Trail is in good shape and has stood up well to a hard winter! The Friends of the West River Trail will hold a Trail Workday on Sunday May 17th, from 10 am to 2 pm for some springtime maintenance.

Work will include cleaning drainage pipes and ditches, cutting low hanging trees and branches, moving stones, removing invasive plants, and if time permits, begin cutting a new trail along the river in the Riverstone Preserve.

Please join the Friends for a fun workday on the trail! Bring a camera, bring the kids, bring a friend, and meet up at the Marina trailhead at 10 am on Sunday May 17th. Wear footwear for working in mud. Bring gloves, water and snacks, and tools of your choice. We will provide shovels, rakes, mattocks, rock moving tools, hoes, a chainsaw, cutters and light refreshments.
