Following a week of rain and two days of cold sun, we were lucky to have cloudy, dry warm day to bring a group of 11 workers together to construct the 25 eight-foot boardwalks for the wet part of the trail. Three hard working teams managed to complete the task by just after noon. What a group!
Those of us who love to use the trails are grateful for your time and effort in making this happen.
Thanks also to TD Canada Trust and their environmental funding for the purchase of the wood. We are definitely off to a great start in making the trails more user friendly. Soon you will see new signage with maps identifying “You Are Here.” at specific points along the trail.
If you are interested in joining the work groups, be sure to give us your email. There will be more work parties needed in the spring when the area dries out and the constructed boardwalks can be appropriately placed. (See the picture below)
