Another amazing crew working on the Lindsborg end of the Meadowlark trail today. 9 volunteers came out this morning. We worked a little longer than we planned so we did get into the warmer part of the morning. We hauled off 3 very full dump trailers and the trail is looking great. Thank you to everyone that could come out and work this morning.

This Saturday is the second Saturday of the month. We are planning a workday.

We will continue trimming overhead branches on the trail. We are planning on having two dump trailers so the more helping hands we have to fill them the better!!

Meeting time: 8:00 am
Meeting place: Smoky Valley Road
Items to bring: Work gloves, chain saw if you have one, pole saw if you have one, loppers

Remember poison ivy loves this area, so please wear long pants and long sleeves.

The forecast calls for hot weather, we will work as long as we can stand it!

We had a great workday today on the Meadowlark Trail. We worked from Lindsborg south, cutting back some low-hanging tree limbs, etc. We were able to get about 3/4 of a mile completed. We had 6 volunteers and a dump trailer to use for the day. We worked 3 and a half hours with a very good crew.
