This is a sign up for National Trail Day in Forest Park!
When: Saturday, June 1st at 9:00am - 12:00pm
Where: Wildwood & 53rd Trail Head in Forest Park. We strongly encourage carpooling whenever possible due to limited parking!
What: We'll be removing excess growth from the spring along the trails of Forest Park, making a safe corridor for park-goers to use the whole trail. This helps prevent overuse and erosion throughout the season.
All participants are expected to wear close-toed shoes, dress appropriately for the weather, and bring any medications they believe they might need. We also ask that all participants be prepared to show proof of vaccination and bring a facial covering for engaging with others--we do not expect volunteers will need to wear masks while volunteering.
This activity takes place outdoors in the open air, and though participants often pass each other on the narrow trail, we have lots of room to spread out. With that in mind, masks and vaccination are not required for this activity. However, we require volunteers to stay home when feeling any symptoms of illness (regardless of COVID-19 test result) and fully support participants’ choice to wear a mask if desired.
