March 8th is postponed until March 22
Due to the terrible weather we are getting today and tomorrow we have decided to postpone Hiking Trail Maintenance Day until March 22, 2008 (9 am -12 noon). With the amount of rain and wind that the weather service is calling for we decided it would be safer to postpone the workday for the benefit of both our volunteers and our trails. Please let us know if you can make it March 22, 2008, we are serving lunch at noon to all of our Hiking Trail Maintenance Volunteers. Feel free to call us at the office 410-414-3400 with any questions you may have.
9 a.m. – 12 Noon
