The East Hudson Trail Crew has some exciting projects this season with opportunities to build several new trails.

We are short on crew leaders to achieve this ambitious program so early trips will have an emphasis on crew leader training.

No special skills are required, the crew leader and other experienced crew members will teach newcomers. New trail construction generally has more opportunities for lighter work. Work on new trails guarantees you an opportunity to maintain the trail that you helped to build. 

The Trail Conference trail crews are made up of volunteers dedicated to the construction and rehabilitation of foot trails in the Southern New York and Northern New Jersey area. Volunteers must become members of the Conference to participate in these projects. A one time "guest" participation is allowed.

If you would like to volunteer for any of the below projects please contact the listed leader for information on meeting times and places. We make a special effort to arrange pickups at the nearest Hudson Line train station (schedule).
