Opportunity Details

Helping Hand Hike #spring


Help us expand and improve the trail system at Mill Ridge Park! Volunteers will cover up to 3 miles while creating and improving primitive trails at Mill Ridge Park. Activities involve hiking, bending, lifting, and the use of hand tools, and include:

  • Planning, measuring, mapping, and marking primitive trails.   
  • Picking up and removing litter and debris from the trails.
  • Performing brushing activities with loppers, pruners, and weed wrenches.
  • Moving downed trees and branches from trail to maintain proper corridor and prevent shortcutting. 

Volunteers for this activity should dress for weather conditions. Parts of the trail system could be muddy and/or wet. We recommend pants and shoes with adequate tread suitable for outdoor activity on rough, uneven terrain. A portable toilet is available near the trailhead.  
 
Mill Ridge Park is a 622+ acre regional park, centrally located in the fast-growing and diverse community of Southeast Davidson County.
