Thursday Jul 8, 2021 - Horseshoe Trail Cleanup

MARK will be taking us through a Horseshoe Trail Clean Up. This occurs on the section of the trail that our club periodically maintains. This section spans from Knauers to Adamstown; however, we may not cover all of it at this time. Bring loppers and trimming tools, also work gloves, water and plenty of good humor. Wear long pants and long sleeve shirt to avoid poison ivy. This is a good time to give back to the community with some trail maintenance. 

MEET: 9:30 A.M. @ Kenhorst Shopping Plaza, Rtes. 724 & 625, in the lot at Dairy Queen. 

TELEPHONE: Leader Mark 484-824-2740 with questions.
