Sky Meadows will celebrate National Trails Day with a service project on our North Ridge Trail. Join us as we give back to a trail that provides recreation, exposure to nature, and spectacular views of the Crooked Run Valley! Participants will learn basic trail maintenance skills by working with experienced Trailblazers to perform maintenance on drains that keep water off the tread. All ages are welcome and no experience is required. All tools and supplies will be provided. Total hike to and from the work site is approximately 3 miles. Please wear long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and comfortable hiking shoes. Bring work gloves, water, a snack (optional), bug spray and sunscreen.

Registration is highly encouraged. Register here.

Two volunteers with shovels work on Sky Meadows trails.
