TAHOE RIM TRAIL BACKCOUNTRY CAMPS NEED YOU!!!

altJOIN A TRAIL WORK CREW

 

Volunteers of all skill levels, strengths, and ages are welcome.  No experience necessary!  So sign up today and help us preserve a trail like no other.

To sign up for a workday!
Click on the link (at the bottom of the page) corresponding to the date you would like to volunteer, then fill in your information and click register.  You will be contacted shortly with more information about the workday.

We Need Your Help!
Remember, for any of our work parties no experience is necessary, just a desire to work with great people, to have some fun playing in the dirt and to help contribute to something that benefits us all. As a volunteer you will learn new skills, build trail tread, construct rock walls, meet likeminded people, and give back to your community!

Please Be Prepared!
We provide you with tools, hard hats, crew leaders, and a fun outdoor volunteer experience.  However, please be prepared by dressing in the right clothes, which are necessary for your safety. When you arrive for a work party please be wearing:

  • A sturdy pair of boots. Standard hiking boots are fine. Tennis shoes are not! Trailbuildingwebsitepic
  • A long pair of pants. No shorts!
  • A long-sleeved shirt.
  • Work gloves.

We can not allow anyone who is not properly dressed to work. Proper clothing is necessary for your safety. Please also bring your own lunch, water, and snacks.  Also, don't be surprised if goodies are being passed around throughout the day.

Please Be On Time!
All our work days start at 9:00 a.m. and it's crucial that you be at the trail-head and ready to go at 9:00 am. Your crew leader will start off with a tool and safety lecture and an explanation of the work being done that day. Everyone must be present for the safety lecture in order to work on the trail. It doesn't matter how many times you've heard it you must be present. When you sign up with us we'll send you information with directions to the trail-head. The workday will end around 4:00 P.M.

Questions?
If you have any questions, please contact Amanda at trails@tahoerimtrail.org or 775-298-0239.  Groups are welcome to participate!  Please register so we will have enough crew leaders, tools, safety gear, etc.
