| Adopt-a-Trail Update -
Updated 09/2009 Once a piece of trail has been constructed, the real work begins! A new trail will not keep its value long without constant monitoring and maintenance. Trail adopters perform many jobs on the trail, including picking up litter, mending fences, controlling weeds, cutting brush, etc. They are also the “eyes on the trail” and report larger issues to the owning agency.
