Trail Maintenance Volunteer Training
For all of you who want to volunteer to work on our trail system, but don’t know what it involves – what to do, what to wear or bring, proper techniques of trail maintenance? Here is your chance.

Forest Service has put together for this year, lots of training opportunities for volunteers. This one is on Volunteering 101 (for anyone new to trail maintenance). There are other training classes for Chainsaw, DitchWitch, Crew Leader ( our club needs more of those), etc. You can check on the EMBA Event Calendar for other training opportunities.
