Come help us build a rock garden at YRSP, on John Blair section B at intersection of Majestic Oak trail.  Colonial Revolution youth race team requested this rock garden for practice for when they race in the mountains, and will be co-leading this project with EVMA. 

Details:

  • Time: Meet at noon, and we plan to start no later than 12:30.  We’ll end either when we finish the rock garden or get tired.  Work for a while, then ride if you want.
  • Location: Meet at the maintenance shed which is part way down the park road, on a turn-off on the right, BEFORE you get to the pay station.  Look for the EVMA banners.  No parking fee applies! 
  • Bring: Work gloves, water, and your bike if you want to ride to the work site (and/or hit the trails afterwards).  We’ll bring the tools.  We’ll be digging, moving/placing rocks, and shoveling/hauling dirt.

A huge thanks to YRSP staff Scott & David who spent their day Tues, March 18 picking up 2.57 tons of brown river rock and almost 4 tons of dirt, and delivering them to the work site.  And to Park Manager Charlie for authorizing this.  This was a HUGE help that saves us from a lot of work unloading/reloading/transporting over 6 tons of material.
