If you’ve never been on the trail at Wyandotte County Lake Park, this is a perfect
opportunity to see what WyCo has to offer. Put your volunteering skills to practical use and get a workout
while you’re at it! We will be performing trail maintenance and building new sections of trail as part of the
American Hiking Society’s National Trails DayŽ. There will be varying levels of work from moderate to mildly strenuous. Activities may include moving brush,
rocks, shoveling dirt, hoeing and leveling, etc. All ages are welcome and there should be something for everyone.
All tools will be provided. No power tools will be needed. All participants are encouraged to dress appropriately,
wearing long pants, leather boots, eye protection, hats, gloves etc. We will be working in undeveloped forested areas
so bug repellant is encouraged. It is possible to be exposed to ticks and
poison ivy. All participants will be required to sign a participation release of liability waiver.
