Meet at the parking lot next to Missile Park in St. Boni. Volunteers will then break up into teams with each Trail Section Leader taking people as needed.

From our new trail coordinator: The majority of us were finally able to ride locally this winter. If this applies to you, please take a moment to think of any areas where signage could be improved, routing changed, or note areas where sled traffic was consistently off the marked trail. Be observant as we walk the trails again to remove signs. Please send Ryan an email with your observations and suggestions. Ryan will work with the trail bosses to see what can be done. Thanks again to everyone who helps maintain our trails!
