party

Super sized trail building, camping, and riding weekend!   If you've ever helped at L.L. Stub Stewart State Park to build the mountain biking singletrack, then this weekend is not to be missed.   We hope to be ready to open the upper trail loop to the public during this event.   

Saturday - trail work party (placing trail signage? finishing work?) followed by celebration (CAKE!) back at conference center at Cabin Village.   CHECK-IN for trail work group at Welcome Center parking area by 9am.   We should be back at Cabin Village for Hot Dog BBQ/Cake by about 2pm (all are welcome whether having worked this day or a past volunteer build day).

Small group of people are camping Saturday night (fee is waived for volunteers working trail!) - most camp sites already reserved - but there's hike-in first come/first serve camping spots available (some plan to camp at hike-in area).

** please be kind and RSVP if you plan to attend! **

Bring snack, water, and work gloves.  Bike is optional but highly recommended to ride 1 mile out to project location - and park doesn't like more than couple vehicles driving down trail so may not have room for all in a vehicle (this one will be down Banks-Vernonia trail from Welcome Center then hiking for .5 miles to project area).  We can transport your hiking shoes along with tools to spot where you'll be able to change into boots and stash bikes off in the woods near where project will be - your call on if you are comfortable doing that - but so far we haven't lost a bike to the wild animals... ).

This is a Volunteer trail build event hosted by Northwest Trail Alliance at L.L. Stub Stewart State Park. 
A list of all Spring 2010 NWTA scheduled build days at Stub is posted to the Project Updates message forum.
