The fun starts with setting up and camping at the CCC Kitchen in the Sherando Lake Recreation Area. On Saturday, we will get out and cut back encroaching plant growth from trails using swing blades, loppers, and shears. Additionally, we will be removing any smaller blowdowns we encounter. Free Park entrance; Free camping; One day of work, what could be better? Friday & Sunday are travel days. Ten to fifteen people are needed.
