July 25th Trailhead Tuesday

We’ll plan to meet at the church parking lot in Franklin, across from the Lazy Hiker.

This is a program for those looking to get involved but with limited time. We will meet in the early afternoon to divide and conquer some minor clean up and trail head maintenance. We’re looking for folks to visit a set of selected trail heads to re-stock Bartram Trail information cards, complete a trail head condition report, pick up any trash in the area, and chat with hikers as they start their day hike.

We’ll supply everything you need for the day. Although we suggest you bring your own gloves, a hat, sunscreen, and a positive attitude.

We’ll meet at 1pm in the parking area at the First United Methodist Church in Franklin. We’ll regroup between 3-4 and head over to Lazy Hiker for a cold beverage on us.

Please RSVP to help with planning for this event:

July 21st Third Friday Workday

Please consider joining us for our July 21st, Third Friday Workday from 9am to 3pm.

We’ll meet at Warwoman Dell at 9am and shuttle the group to Earl’s Ford to work the trail from there. We’ll be back at Warwoman Dell by 3pm.

Please bring work gloves, good boots, plenty of water, lunch, any meds you might need and esprit de corps.

If you’re new to trail maintenance or just want to learn more, you can find more information here on our site. Don’t be shy, we’ll provide everything you need to enjoy your day while making a huge impact for future enjoyment of the Bartram Trail. The hard work of our volunteers is what keeps the 110 miles of trails open and usable all year long.

Please RSVP so we can plan the work and tool requirements.

June 27th: Trailhead Tuesday at Warwoman Dell

This will be a special Trailhead Tuesday and really hope our Georgia folks can make it. We’ve coordinated with a Boy Scout Troop who will be thru-hiking the Bartram Trail during this week and they will come through Warwoman Dell around the same time we’re there. We’ll help them all earn their service badges and share in tidying up the Dell a bit.

If we have enough folks turn up, we can divide the group to go out to Russell Bridge, Hale Ridge Rd, Sandy Ford, and some stay at the Dell to work with the Scout group.
