This volunteer opportunity is available to ANY friends of nature – runners, bikers, hikers, Master Naturalists, and neighbors.
We are preparing for the reopening of the timber area. We will be working on seeding the timber area and repairing the trails in the timber area this Saturday.
We will meet at 8:00 am at the Mission Road kiosk/parking area. Turn onto Mission Road from Route 115 (a right-hand turn if coming from Charles Town, WV), go 6.5 miles and turn left onto the gravel road with signage for Rolling Ridge. Mission Road Kiosk is about 1 mile on the left before the intersection of Floc Way, Tupelo Lane, and Mission Road. For those of you that usually come from the Virginia access (SU campus), you’ll either need to ride your bike or drive the long way to the WV meeting site.
Things you should bring: Work boots, gloves, water bottle, snack, sunglasses or eye protection. We will bring extra drinking water.
Safety Note: There is always the consideration of ticks and snakes in our landscape and thought should be placed on dressing for the environment (i.e. long pants tucked into socks and a good pair of shoes or boots)
