Every bit removed makes an impact, so thank you for giving your Saturday morning to being impactful!

Until then, see you in the park!

Thanks to everyone who came out on Saturday the 6th for our June workday!

We were able to get a few bags of trash and dog waste picked up, but the volunteers had to work for it as they were seeing a relatively limited amount of both in the park. This is great to hear that the public has been doing well picking up after themselves and their best friends. Shout out to the public on this one!

And thanks to the members of the Manitou Coronado Palmer Middle School and High School Mountain Bike Team for coming out and helping us close down a rogue trail leading from the Yucca Area to Templeton Trail.

It was a hot day, but a lot of fun was had and a lot of good was accomplished. Keep an eye out for the posting for our July workday, which will be on the 11th in order to avoid the Fourth of July weekend.

Until then, see you in the park!
