Event Description: 

Join us as we perform maintenance on Kent Trail on the sunny shores of Alpine Lake. We will be doing much needed storm repair which includes a new retaining wall, tread improvements and some trail realignment. Invasive foxglove patches to also be eradicated.

Please park at the end of Bon Tempe Dam Road – you will receive your parking pass when you drive past the Sky Oaks Headquarters kiosk. Arrive by 9am for breakfast snacks, sign-in, and project assignments. All volunteers receive a free t-shirt and enjoy a BBQ lunch at 1:00. Arrive at the work site in style via watercraft or get a boat ride back after your morning of service.
