Harris Lake Workday

Yay, workday!!! Here's your chance to fix that sloppy turn BEFORE the race (http://www.meetup.com.... Of course non-racers are also encouraged to participate.

With all the rain in December and the current freeze/thaw cycle, this is a good idea. We will be walking the trail addressing general maintenance issues (deberming, drainage, etc). We will divide up into small groups and work different sections of trail.

Bring sturdy work shoes, gloves and water.

Saturday, January 23
9:00 am (approximately 3-4 hours)
Meet at the gravel trailhead lot (the field should be open for parking)

    My son has a batting lesson in the afternoon, so I can't organize post workday activities. However, a few suggestions: Aviator Tap Room (TORC sponsor), Carolina Brewing Co. (Tour, free beer last time I went), ride with Ben locally, and San Lee isn't that far away.

    Sorry I didn't turn off the email reminders. This was my first meetup posting and I know how irritating the email can get. Imagine the emails I've been getting every time someone rsvps or changes it.

    Thanks to everyone who came out to help today. We cleared the list of items Amy at Harris Park generated for us, which of course is great. Also great that Amy wrote everything out for us in the first place.

    Thanks again.

    Thanks Chris and Christina for giving us an opportunity to show the Harris Lake trails some love. Hope we were able to put in some drainage work that will help.
