Hi Everyone – I meant to email you this reminder last Friday, but time keeps flying by. The January OHV Work Day will be on Saturday, January 28th starting at 9 am at the Uwharrie Hunt Camp. We will be meeting there and heading out to the OHV Trails. The projects for this 1st work day for 2023 will be rebuilding the ATV ramp at Flatwoods Trailhead and repairing the ATV ramps at Art Lilley and Dutch John Trail and if possible fixing some of the guiderail fencing at Flatwoods and Art Lilley too.
The other project will be finishing up the guardrail installation in a couple sections on Daniel Trail and Rocky Mt Loop Trail that we did not complete last year because we ran out of posts. I hope we’re all done by 2:30that day. If you have a vehicle that can haul guardrail posts and drag guardrails please bring it. Please bring your lunch and water, wear long pants and long sleeves, closed-toed shoes / work boots, work gloves, sunglasses / glasses, and bring any of the normal tools we use for installing guardrails and fixing the wooding fencing. We’ll have the nuts, bolts, washers, rails, posts, gravel and wooden timbers for all of the projects.
The Lakeview Trail work will hopefully be completed by our February work day and for that work day we should be able to begin installing signs, reflectors, etc. along the trail at the trailheads, etc.
Most of you have not sent me your individual or club’s volunteer agreements. You must fill those out and have them to me on that day at the latest if you’ll be there or folks from your group will be there. You can fill out the attached form sign your parts, scan it and email it to me so I can get Susan’s signature. If you’re sending in a club’s agreement please also include a current roster of people using the group volunteer sign up sheet and email me that too.
You do not need to adopt a specific trail in order to volunteer. We generally rotate around all of the trails on the monthly work days. If you want to adopt a trail feel free to fill that form out too. Remember, as of this year we won’t have any club specifically adopting the new Lakeview Trail. Thanks a lot for your help. We’re looking forward to another work day with you. Bye - Terry
