Well, we had a very successful workday today! 17 people showed up on a lousy weather day (for April anyway). It actually made for some decent work weather, even with ice pellets and snow. We got a ton of benching done and are very close to have rideable trail. Having such great volunteers is awesome.
Using current estimates of cost per linear foot, the trails built by volunteers at Stocksdale/Walnut Woods represent approximately $90,000 in value added to these public lands. This is based on lower end estimates as of 04/15/11.
PARK HOURS
