West Jersey Trail Crew

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.

All are welcomed; no previous trail work experience is necessary. Bring sturdy boots, work gloves, lunch and water. Tools and training are provided. If possible, please notify the leaders that you are coming, so they will know how many people to plan work for.

Leaders: David and Monica Day
Phone: (732) 937-9098

Spring 2008

 Everybody is welcome to join us. Bring your lunch, plenty of water, gloves and sturdy work shoes. All tools, materials and training will be provided. Come have fun, playing in the dirt!

All events begin at 9:00am, and most involve travel to the work site, so please be there on time. Call or email leaders for meeting place details and other questions. Heavy rain in the morning will cancel – if in doubt, call leaders after 6:00am that morning.
