Opportunity Details
Helping Hand Hike
Help us expand and improve the trail system at Mill Ridge Park! Join us for an exclusive look at the still-in-progress primitive Red Trail. Volunteers will cover up to 2 mile–no prior trail work experience needed. Snacks and water are provided. Expect a fun day that will 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.
- Trimming branches.
- 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.
Mill Ridge Park is a 622+ acre regional park, centrally located in the fast-growing and diverse community of Southeast Davidson County. Friends of Mill Ridge Park enhances and advocates for Mill Ridge Park to strengthen the community in Southeast Davidson County. Friends of Mill Ridge Park hosts and facilitates community driven education, recreation, and conservation focused volunteer opportunities, as well as programmed activities that include seasonal guided hikes, kite fests, pumpkin patch parties, and night sky viewing parties.
*To be good stewards of community resources, we rely on sufficient participation. If that is not reached before 72 hours of a scheduled volunteer session, we may need to reschedule the activity.
