The Winter trail is back! Help us clear the track! Saturday, 9am-12pm, 29 Nov. & 6 Dec., 2014

by | Nov 19, 2014 | Members & Volunteers

Sentiers Chelsea Trails is working with the Municipality of Chelsea and other community partners to bring the Chelsea Community Winter Trail back for the 2015 season.

We need your help!   Some sections of the railway corridor are obstructed by weeds and brush.  We need volunteers who can come out and help clear the corridor so we can have a great winter trail.

Thanks to all the volunteers who came out last Saturday, Nov. 15th to help clear the northern section of the corridor.   On Saturday, Nov. 29 we will work on the south end.

When:  Saturday, Nov. 29 & Dec. 6 from  9am to 12pm.

Where:  Meet at  the intersection of chemin Mill or chemin Patrick and the railway crossing at 9am.

What:  Useful equipment includes gloves, safety glasses, pruners, shears and scythes. SCT will have gas powered brush cutters. Please bring your our safety equipment if you have it.

Please let us know if you are available on Saturday.  We hope to have at least 3 crews of 4 to 6 people going south and north along the corridor.  Dec. 6th is also scheduled for another section of the track.

Indicate your availability at: http://doodle.com/awcbcibexqag46yp    We will confirm by email.
