The Mass AT Committee project schedule for the upcoming season will be published soon. A range of projects are planned for the year including boardwalk repairs, shelter and privy roof replacements, bog bridging, blowdown blitzes, trail brushing, open area clearing, natural heritage site visits, dock repairs and more! Click on our Getting Involved page for the 2012 Project Schedule (coming soon). If you’d like to join in a project just contact the project leader listed. No experience is needed, just a desire to get outdoors and have a great time with a great bunch of folks!
Join us on Saturday and Sunday, May 21 and 22, 2011 as we continue restoration efforts on a segment of the New England National Scenic Trail at Mt. Tom.
Reservation staff, the Appalachian Mountain Club, NET personnel and Trailwrights, Inc (a professional trail maintenance organization) will demonstrate to volunteers-and guide them through-the techniques of trail restoration.
A great opportunity to learn or update skills, meet new faces, enjoy hearty food, and help to restore this trail for future generations.
Snacks will be provided on both days; lunch will be provided to all-day participants on Saturday.
