VMB is joining with the Wildands Conservancy work on the new trail at South Mountain Emmaus.
The workday will run from 9 am to 1 pm and we'll focus mostly on bench-cutting several sections of the trail. Volunteers should bring Rogue Hoes, Mattocks and Pulaskis. Rakes, flat shovels, loppers and hand saws will be handy too. Also: bring water, closed toe shoes or boots, long pants, eye protection, gloves and snacks. Lots of snacks!
Meeting place and location TBD--we'll update as soon as we have confirmation. Wildlands is working to get permission from a private landowner nearby to access the property for the trailwork day.
UPDATE:
We will meet at Dogwood Lane in Allentown. This will not be a trailhead, because it is accessed via private property—we have special permission to use it during organized trailwork days.
