Adopt-A-Trail

Do you love hiking and hitting the trails? Does our network of trails have a special meaning to you? The Adopt-a-Trail Program offers volunteer opportunities for you to contribute to the beauty of our community’s trail system, making a difference in our community.

Those who can become adopters of specific trails include:

  • businesses
  • community organizations
  • families
  • individuals
  • schools

Duties

You are responsible for donating your time to help maintain our trails. We provide supplies for picking up litter and removing graffiti and provide training and support. Adopt-a-Trail volunteers:

  • Complete an activity log after each visit
  • Keep the trail clean from litter 
  • Report trail hazards, vandalism or unusual activity

Recognition

The trail adoption is a minimum of one year and volunteers will be recognized with signage at various points along the trail. Volunteers commit to visit their assigned trail once a week from April to October and once a month from November to March.
