2024 Trail Days
Trail Day: SUNDAY September 22nd, 2024 - 10a to 2pm
Come help make Eva Bandman a great place to ride a bike and race cyclocross!
Goal: clear out undergrowth!
Ben Wilson will be running point that day to help organize. Find Ben and he'll point you in the right direction!
We've carved Eva into 4 areas, all which need help. We'll need a handful of "area leaders" to guide the work in the four areas I've carved out. So sign up to be a leader!
For this one, we don't need big machinery, but the tools on the signup list would be very helpful.
We have a long list, so there will be something for everyone - and all abilities and skills - to work on.
See the signup link below for more details / what to bring:
