Lake Whitehall Trail

Monthly Workday

In partnership with Hopkinton's Trail Coordination & Management Committee, the Trails Club runs a trail maintenance workday on the first Saturday of each month. The work will vary depending upon the needs at each site: trail clearing, cleaning out drainage ditches, removing invasive plants, and more. Participants will need gloves and sturdy footwear, and tools appropriate for the work to be done.

This is a great opportunity to give back to the trails you love. Each workday lasts just a few hours, and you'll be with a fun group of people. By the way, if you're a student or Scout in need of community service hours, this qualifies!

Curious about the projects being considered? The TCMC maintains a spreadsheet with the info. If you have a suggestion for a trail that needs work, or know of a specific issue to be addressed, send us an email.

Next workday

Date: Saturday, December 2
Time: 9AM-noon
Location: Hughes Farm property
Meeting/parking location: Hughes Farm parking area, 192 Hayden Rowe St.
Work to be done: Replace culvert with bridge, maybe clear vegetation
Tools: Digging tools (shovels, grub hoes), rakes, cordless drills with T25 bits, loppers, hand clippers

The primary task will be to remove a drain pipe under the path and build/install a small bridge at that spot. This requires digging out the pipe. There may also be an opportunity for some folks to clear invasives and other vegetation.
