Hanlon Boardwalk

Saturday October 3rd, 9 AM to 5 PM & Sunday October 4th, 10 AM to 2 PM
Come on out for a few hours we will definitely need people for Saturday afternoon.  The work has a habit of going very quickly so the majority of the boardwalk building will likely be completed on Saturday.   We’ll finish the work on Sunday and continue some trail resurfacing.  These events are always a lot of fun and it is really great to get out and swing a hammer.  Be sure to spread the word and bring family and friends out for the event especially those of you that live near the property.  They should be great workdays and a lot of fun.  We’ll be building a couple of small bridges and doing a lot of trail work through the Hanlon Creek wetland to protect the integrity of the trees and to make the trail more suitable.  I’ll be providing lunch.  Cheers.  Dave
